Lighting up the Cathedral

We receive several requests each month from organisations and charities, asking to light up the Cathedral in different colours. It is not simple to change the colour of the lighting on the Cathedral and takes planning. Also, changing the colour several times a month would lose impact. For these reasons, and not to favour one individual cause over another, we reserve the lighting change for rare occasions of national significance.

Informal Concerts

We offer choirs and singing groups the opportunity to sing in the Cathedral as an ‘informal concert’. You can learn more and book a date by clicking the link below:
