King's Men Singing on the River 2026

What is King's Men Singing on the River 2026?

As the summer sun begins to set on the unmistakable silhouette of King's College Chapel, The King's Men take to the water on a fleet of punts to perform a spectacular programme of madrigals, folksongs, and contemporary choral classics.

So, pack your picnics and drinks and join us on the river for one of the most iconic events of the University calendar.

Have a question?

Do I need to pre-book?

Yes, for this event you will need to book in advance.

Can I access King's College wth this booking?

No, this booking only provides you with a chauffeured punt to stay on the river by the King's College during the event. If you would like to access the College it is perhaps best to purchase event entry tickets on the King's College website.

What if I just turn up?

You can not book this product at the kiosk. Boats are available to book online only.

Can I change my booking time?

No, bookings are valid for the date and time purchased and are non-refundable less than one week before the event.

How many people can go in a punt?

All of our chauffeured punts are limited to 12 people. Babies and toddlers count towards the total number of passengers.

What should I wear?

We suggest that you wear something you don’t mind getting a little wet. Remember to dress appropriately for the weather. If there's a chance of rain, don't forget to bring a raincoat or umbrella. You need to make sure you have the correct footwear, which is non-slip, stable, can’t fall off easily and offers protection to your toes and heel. Please do not punt in bare feet or wear sandals, flip-flops, slip-on, leather-soled or high-heeled shoes


Can I bring food or drinks?

You are welcome to bring food and drinks. Please bring a bag to collect your waste and dispose of it in a bin after the event.
