Escape the festive rush and immerse yourself in a concert of spellbinding seasonal music, performed by candlelight.

In the deep still darkness, comes the luminous sound of a choir in harmony. Expect some of your favourite carols, and discover a treasure trove of gorgeous new - and old - music and readings that explore the magic, humour and peace of Christmas.

St Peter's Collegiate Church, Wolverhampton

Welcome to St Peter's Collegiate Church in the heart of Wolverhampton.   We are normally open every weekday between 11am and 2pm for visits and private prayer and we'd love to see you! 

IMPORTANT – Chancel Window Repairs

Now that the scaffolding  has been installed and works have begun there will be no access to the Chancel until  completion ( estimated February 2026).   However the rest of the church remains open as normal during this time. 

South Door Access

Unfortunately, following the recent problem with the stonework above the South Door, there will be no access to St Peter’s through the South Porch for the foreseeable future to allow remedial works to take place.

We do however have temporary ramped access via the West door. Please ask if you need to use the ramp.

During Term time we have Choral Sung Eucharist at 11.15am every Sunday   (Sung Eucharist in School Holidays), Choral Evensong at 6.30pm (said in School Holidays) and weekday Choral Evensong at 5.15pm on Wednesdays (Term time only)

You will find our Music List for the current month and our weekly Music and Notice Booklet in PDF format under the Notice Sheets tab in the News and Notices section.
