More details

York’s National Centre For Early Music has launched a brand new website with information about hiring the Grade I listed former church for wedding receptions, conferences, meetings, concerts and recordings.

The website at hire.ncem.co.uk is full of useful information about hiring the 14th century building and includes testimonials from previous clients.

Hannah Witcomb, Operations and Events Manager, said that there is a tremendous amount of interest locally, regionally and nationally in hiring the building, which is in great demand.

She said:

The NCEM is such a versatile space and lends itself so well to the different needs of clients and guests.

Wedding couples can’t speak highly enough and really put their personal stamp on the building for their special day.

Conference organisers are impressed with our state-of-the-art conference facilities and our recording artists enjoy the natural acoustic of the church.
