Westminster Abbey has been a place of worship since at least the tenth century. We will be holding regular services again from Sunday 5th July and you are welcome to join us.
Until then, the nave of the Abbey is open for private prayer from Monday to Saturday, between 10.00am and 3.00pm.
Our services are a special experience. All are welcome, but at this time we may not be able to accommodate everyone who wishes to attend due to social distancing advice.

Abbeycast, a podcast produced in a locked down Westminster Abbey, is released every Sunday morning and on other days to mark festivals and events. Each episode features a reading, short address, anthem, prayers, blessing and music from our Choir.

Sacred music is central to life at the Abbey. Here you can find out more about the work of our acclaimed choir and musicians.
More about musicWe produce transcripts and podcasts of sermons our clergy and guest preachers have given at recent Abbey services. They deal with current theological issues, religion and world events, and the interpretation of biblical texts.
Read our sermonsYou are surrounded by history at the Abbey, not like a museum where it’s just displayed, but here you are standing where history has happened.
