A Very Queer Christmas 2026

Christmas means something different to everyone. It can be joyful and nostalgic, complicated and bittersweet - a time for tradition, chosen family, reflection and celebration. This December, The Sunday Boys return to Manchester Cathedral with our much-loved annual concert, A Very Queer Christmas . Now a firm fixture in Manchester’s queer festive calendar, A Very Queer Christmas brings together choral music and storytelling to explore the season through a distinctly queer lens. Expect moments of celebration and reflection, familiar festive favourites alongside the unexpected, and the unmistakable sound of The Sunday Boys filling the magnificent surroundings of Manchester Cathedral. At the heart of the evening is what Christmas can mean to our community: finding belonging, making our own traditions, celebrating the people we love and creating space for all the different emotions this time of year can bring. Whether A Very Queer Christmas is already part of your festive tradition or this will be your first time joining us, we’d love to welcome you. Come and share an evening of music, stories, queer joy and Christmas magic with The Sunday Boys .
