Thaxted Ghost Walk

Don’t miss the chance for encounters with night-time Thaxted; the event was a sell out success in last year’s Festival Extras.

Meet at Thaxted Church, North Porch. Back by popular request, expert guide Ken Baker will conduct a night-time walk around the centre of Thaxted to experience some of its hidden histories. If you enjoy the delights of Thaxted by day, you’ll be fascinated by the stories which unfold after dark. Places on the tour are limited, so be sure to book early. The walk will be along paths in the dark, some of which may be uneven.

Venue: Thaxted Parish Church
Tickets: £12. Age 30 and under: £10. Strictly advance booking only; places limited.

“[The Tippett Quartet] concert as part of the 2023 Thaxted Festival revealed a group of musicians of profound interpretative depth, and capable of traversing a wide range of repertoire.”
Colin Clarke, Classical Explorer
“A positively life-enhancing performance of Donizetti’s The Elixir of Love in English with reduced ensemble by Wild Arts…”
Colin Clarke, Classical Explorer
“The performance was a joy … and the quartet brought out its sense of both structural and linear perfection.” Holst’s Phantasy Quartet Op 36 performed by the Tippett Quartet.
Colin Clarke, Classical Explorer
“The Tippett Quartet and Emma Abbate have performed Schumann’s Piano Quintet together many times. On this occasion they combined flawless execution with instinctive – and utterly engaging – musicianship.”
Claire Seymour, in Seen and Heard International.
“…this was a wonderfully enjoyable and engaging performance that really punched above its weight. The audience in Thaxted clearly loved it and were fully engaged, whilst this experienced reviewer was carried away as well.”
Wild Art’s production of The Elixir of Love, reviewed by Robert Hugill in Planet Hugill
“2 terrific concerts I heard with London Mozart Players.”
Thaxted Festival concertgoer
“I think Gustav is smiling down to see how his memory and that of his best friend and colleague Ralph Vaughan Williams are honoured by the expertly played pieces they both composed.”
Thaxted Festival concertgoer
“It's always the variety and quality which keeps me coming back.”
