Mark Currier from Peterborough Male Voice Choir said: "It really is the start of Christmas for me.

"It’s a fantastic concert, great fun, in a wonderful setting."

Songs like "Away In A Manger," "Silent Night," and "Jingle Bells," will be performed, as well as Christmas favourites such as "O Holy Night," "The Christmas Song," and "Carol of the Bells."

The performances will take place against the backdrop of Peterborough Cathedral.

Bridget Pengelly from Peterborough Voices said: “It’s a real family affair, so bring along your nearest and dearest and I guarantee that you’ll leave with a huge smile on your face and a warm fuzzy festive feeling inside.”

More than 1,000 people attended last year's event, with positive feedback about the performances.

People described the performances as "amazing," and expressed their enjoyment.

The event welcomes people of all ages, offering a matinee show at 2.30pm for families, and an evening performance at 7.30pm.

The organisers encourage people to bring their children and grandparents, saying there is something for everyone.
