General admission, 9.30am – 4pm

Saturday 2 November is All Souls’ Day in the Christian calendar and this year York Minster will mark the date with a special day to remember those who have died.

We will be closed for sightseeing but open with free entry to welcome people into the cathedral who have been recently bereaved or people who simply want to remember loved ones who died many years ago.

A space will be created inside the Minster for people to sit quietly, to reflect, to pray and to light a candle for their dead.

Entry is free and no pre-booking is required.

Requiem Eucharist for All Souls’ Day, 5.30pm

The annual Requiem Eucharist for All Souls’ Day, at which we remember loved ones who have died, will take place at 5.30pm with Duruflé’s Requiem performed by the Choir of York Minster.

All are welcome, no booking required.
