Leeds International Organ Festival

Welcome to the Leeds International Organ Festival 2026

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the 2026 Leeds International Organ Festival. As Cathedral Organist and Artistic Director of the Festival, I am honoured to continue our tradition of presenting world-class organ music in the heart of Leeds. The full programme of distinguished recitalists and events will be announced shortly, and will include performances by some of the UK’s most sought-after musicians, as well as masterclasses for parish organists focusing on repertoire and liturgical playing. I warmly invite you to join us for what promises to be a memorable season of concerts.

Benjamin Newlove
Artistic Director
