St Mary’s Church, Nottingham
St Mary’s Church, Nottingham, is the city’s largest and most impressive medieval church, standing proudly in the historic Lace Market district. Dating primarily from the 14th and 15th centuries, the building is a fine example of English Gothic architecture, with its commanding tower and elegant stonework forming one of Nottingham’s most recognisable landmarks.
Inside, the church reveals a vast and luminous interior, where soaring arches, intricate tracery, and richly coloured stained-glass windows create an atmosphere of grandeur and serenity. The spacious nave and beautifully crafted details offer a setting that feels both monumental and welcoming, steeped in centuries of history.
Renowned for its exceptional acoustics, St Mary’s provides a remarkable environment for concerts, choral works, orchestral performances, and candlelit events. The generous proportions of the space allow sound to resonate with clarity and depth, enhancing both vocal and instrumental music.
Located in the cultural heart of Nottingham, St Mary’s Church offers a venue where history, architecture, and live performance come together — a timeless setting for unforgettable musical experiences.
St Mary's in the Lace Market has a ramp at the south door entrance, an accessible toilet and a hearing loop available for all services.
