About Northern Aldborough Festival

The ten-day festival featuring the hottest talents from opera and classical music hosted in the picturesque Roman village of Aldborough.

Now in its 29th year, the Northern Aldborough Festival has become a leading fixture on the classical music calendar. A bucolic British countryside setting, Aldborough is conveniently located just half an hour from the city of York.

Its reputation is built on delivering high-quality music and talks in a truly rural setting.

About the Northern Aldborough Festival

A charity, its core aim is to bring exceptional music to new audiences in rural locations where it would not normally be heard.

This year’s headline guest is Lucy Worsley presenting ‘Agatha Christie: A Very Elusive Woman’. The queen of history delves into the queen of crime as she cracks the Christie code. She’ll share her research into the writer’s personal letter and papers to uncover the real Agatha.

Audiences at the festival will experience performances fit for the world’s biggest concert halls in the intimate settings of St Andrew’s Church in the picturesque village.
