On completion of your booking, you will be emailed an e-ticket containing a QR code and booking reference number.

As a working college and cathedral areas of Christ Church, such as the Hall and Cathedral, close when they are being used for private events, services, exams or meals. Sometimes closures occur at very short notice but we aim to finalise our opening times for multimedia guide tours and guided tours one week in advance. Tickets are therefore available to book on a weekly basis and will be released each Friday for the following week.

You may buy up to 11 tickets per session for our multimedia guide tours. If you would like to book for 12 people or more please complete the booking request form on our group bookings page 

E-tickets may only be redeemed once. If you have purchased tickets for multiple people in one transaction you can provide them with the booking reference or eticket and they can arrive separately and redeem their own ticket.

If you are late and miss your entry time we will do our best to accommodate you at the next available opportunity but cannot guarantee entry.
