St. James' Church

Chipping Campden is rightly described as 'The Jewel of the Cotswolds'. St. James' church is the most glorious building in this 'Jewel' and the setting for our seventh annual Music Festival.

 

"Welcome to the 2010 Chipping Campden Music Festival. Once again, Charlie Bennett has put together an exceptional programme of events which promise to be as inspiring and rewarding as ever. As those of you who are returning to the festival will already know, listening to great music performed live in St James’ Church is a unique and wonderful experience. For those planning to come here for the first time, I can guarantee that you're in for a treat!"    

A message from festival President Paul Lewis.
