Tickets now available for St Edmund’s Day Dinner

Following the success of last year’s St Edmund’s Day Dinner, invitations are being made to residents in Bury St Edmunds and beyond to this year’s celebration at St Edmundsbury Cathedral.

Last year’s event raised more than £28,000 for local charities while bringing together 330 guests from businesses and individuals who contribute so much to the continued success of Bury St Edmunds and the surrounding area.

This year’s headline charities are:

Suffolk Sight working at the heart of communities across Suffolk, providing practical support and life-changing services for adults and children living with sight loss. Many of the essential services they provide rely on charitable funding to continue and every pound raised helps ensure they can keep delivering this invaluable support to those who need it most.

The Abbey of St Edmund- Reborn Project is working to preserve one of our town’s greatest treasures for future generations. The project will celebrate the extraordinary story of St Edmund, bringing the Abbey’s remarkable heritage to life through engaging experiences that inspire and connect a new generation of visitors, ensuring this important part of our history remains at the heart of Bury St Edmund’s.

Tickets are £95pp to include welcome drinks, three course meal, entertainment by Naomi Rogers, a UK-based soprano, a raffle and auction.

Tables will seat 10, with table-sharing options also available for those who may not require a full table.

The dinner continues to grow in reputation as one of the most important and enjoyable business and community events in the town’s calendar and it’s hoped people will join and help to make this year’s event an even greater success.

Ticket sales are strong; the dinner was sold out early last year.
