The Summer Dinner raises money for restoration and conservation projects at the Minster with all profits from the evening going towards the new toilets and refreshment facilities for the building.

The dress code is ‘relaxed smart’ - and you do not need to be part of the Minster congregation to attend.

Places for the event are £37.50 and can be booked via [email protected] or on 01302 323748
