Music at The Priory

The Priory is all about music that matters, creating performances that lift the spirit and celebrate the unique atmosphere of our unique space. From intimate candlelight concerts to bold folk, jazz, choral and classical showcases, every event is curated with the space in mind. Expect everything from silent discos to stripped-back ‘Tiny Desk’-style sets that feel truly one-of-a-kind.


We champion both celebrated touring artists and emerging local talent from Cartmel, Cumbria and beyond. Music here isn’t just for listening – it’s for connecting. Some concerts will grow from community collaborations involving schools, choirs or local creatives working alongside professionals. Others will simply let great music fill the space. Always, the aim is the same: to make the Priory sing in new and unexpected ways.
