There is no parking at the cathedral. The 'Cathedral car park' is a public car park very close to the cathedral. It is situated behind Sainsburys and can be accessed by car from Queen's Street or St Mary's Gate. There is pedestrian access from the car park to Minster Street opposite the cathedral. The car park charges £2.50 all day.
No group accommodation is being arranged for this visit. However, the following may be useful.
Ripon is a small town. We recommend booking accommodation early if you plan to stay in the town centre. Local hotels include:
Other hotels are available.
All music will be provided on the day. You will be expected to have learnt music made available in advance of the visit. No time in the rehearsal will be given to note-bashing this music. We will spend more time looking at music introduced on the day. We regret that copyright does not always allow us to make all music available beforehand.
Cassocks and surplices will be provided on the day (if you are new, please send your approx height and build to Elizabeth at secretary@harsnettchoir.org).
Please wear quiet black shoes and black socks/tights as these might show under your cassock.
We do limit the number of people we can take to fit the stalls and maintain balance between the parts. Places are assigned on a first come first served basis. You will be informed if your part is over-subscribed within 48 hours from signing up for this visit. Please do not arrange non-refundable travel or accommodation until after this time. If you need to know immediately, please contact Ed at md@harsnettchoir.org
