Choral Evensong
Sunday 15th March: 1800 StarFest 2026
On March 15th the stars and the sky are celebrated in this special service of music and readings as part of the StarFest 2026 festival taking place in Tisbury throughout the week that follows.
In this service we marvel at our celestial skies with music by Malcolm Archer, Philip Moore, and Stuart Robinson’s “I wonder as I wander” which will close the service in complete darkness, except for the floodlight from our new east window.
Choral Evensong according to the Book of Common Prayer, sung by the church choir and singers from other local churches, takes place in St John’s Tisbury on the third Sunday in the month (except August and December) at 6pm.
We look forward to seeing you for what is an increasingly popular service, perhaps because of the cadences of its traditional language and its timelessness, combined with good quality speech and music – and coming as it does at the end of the day.

It’s true; more people are attending our Choral Evensong services too, though not in their thousands – as yet. Do come; you will be very welcome. http://www.choralevensong.org
