Attending Chapel services in person & online

We warmly welcome alumni back to Queens’ Chapel for services during term time.

Choral services are typically sung by  Queens’ College Chapel Choir three times a week, who greatly value the support of an in-person congregation. 

Our choral services are also live streamed, and we are particularly grateful to the alumni who support us by joining in worship this way.

Please view the service timetable on Queens’ Chapel webpage.

An alumni carol service is organised each December in London. Please view our event webpage to find out about our 2026 service. 

In addition, alumni are invited to the annual Service of Remembrance when the names of Queens’ students and staff who died in service during the two World Wars (1914-18 and 1939-45) are honoured. 

The Commemoration of Benefactors takes place on the Sunday before the start of Easter Term. It is an opportunity to reflect on the generosity of patrons whose substantial gifts make possible the life and work of Queens’ today. 

Alumni are welcome to explore the possibility of being married at Queens’. Please visit the Pastoral Services webpage for further information.

Conferencing and Events 

Queens’ Conferencing team are pleased to offer preferential rates to Alumni and are on hand to help plan dinners, conferences or other special events in College.
