London: Evensong @ Westminster Abbey?

No,

There are no tickets for evensong.

You just turn up.

It’s free to attend but depending on when you are traveling always a plus to double check the Abby’s schedule. Also unless the practice has changed you may not wander about after the service.

Thanks! Should we get there super early? We're going on a weekday (Tuesday) in mid March.

WrenG: if there are no Easter-adjacent special things going on (sorry, hope that was not offensive in any way - I’m not Christian and am not sure how to phrase it) you should not need to turn up super early on a Tuesday in March.

Last time I went to Westminster Abbey for evensong I was a tourist - maybe 8 years ago? - and it was winter, but after Christmas, and we turned up about 20 minutes early and just waltzed right in. And it was SOOOOO lovely! :-)

As others have said, you can’t ramble around before or after, but the experience is wonderful even so.

In the past, I have shown up about 20-30 minutes before evensong begins and waited in the queue. I have always gotten pretty good seat. And as already mentioned, you will not be able to walk around — have to follow strict route to the seats and at the end another route to exit.

Like Mary, we too arrived 20-30 minutes prior to the service. Other than this past December when we arrived later than we wanted to, we’ve always gotten a seat in the quire. The service lasts about 45 minutes +/-.

Volva-you phrased it fine. Not offensive at all and people appreciate the information.
