November 11, 2026 – December 13, 2026

Dunblane Cathedral Handbell Ensembles present their annual Carols and Carillons Christmas Concert in Dunblane Cathedral on Sunday 13 December at 7.30pm.

Enjoy Christmas music from through the ages from traditional carols to modern festive music performed on the largest range of handbells in Scotland.

Enjoy music performed by our youngest primary school-aged children and teens, our as well as our intergenerational groups for teens and adults. Music will include something for all ages, from traditional carol melodies and festive classics (“Carol of the Bells”, “O Holy Night”, “He is Born”, “Go, Tell it on the Mountain” and Frank Sinatra’s “Mistletoe and Holly”, as well as “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”, and “Let it Snow!”), to pop numbers (George Michael’s “Last Christmas”, Tom Grennan’s “It Can’t be Christmas”, Sabrina Carpenter’s “A Nonsense Christmas”, and “When Christmas Comes to Town” from Polar Express) – and more!

Dunblane Cathedral Handbell Ensembles have an international reputation and have appeared many times on television. Handbells are one of the world’s oldest instruments – the handbells used today are sophisticated precision musical instruments which produce a beautifully rich sound. And handbells are very much a visual instrument too as you can enjoy the synchronised movement of the glistening handbells as they make music while swishing through the air!

Admission £10 (concessions £8, children free)
