Here is a list of Christmas carol services in English in Belgium that are taking place in December 2025.
Are you considering stepping away from the hustle and bustle for an hour or two, and entering the warmth of a joyful Christmas celebration? Come and lift your hearts and voices as English-speaking churches in many parts of Belgium gather for a time of Christmas carols – a timeless tradition that reminds us of the true reason for the season.
With classic carols, festive cheer, and the story of Jesus’ birth at the heart of it all, these carol concerts promise to fill you with peace, joy, and a renewed sense of wonder. Whether you come to sing with gusto, hum along, or simply reflect on the story of Christmas, I’m sure you’d be welcome to drop in at one of these 16 English-language churches listed below.
