Chichester Cathedral: Chichester 950 light show premiere

Visitors can experience an immersive light and sound show that will tell the story of Chichester Cathedral’s 950th anniversary and help raise vital funds for the cathedral too.

Chichester 950 light show premiere – 24 – 31 October 2025

The immersive installation, running from 24 – 31 October 2025, will mark the grand finale of the Cathedral’s landmark 950th anniversary year.

Created by creative duo, Luxmuralis, the Chichester950 Light Experience will transform Chichester Cathedral’s Nave, soaring arches and sacred spaces into a dynamic artwork, bringing the Cathedral’s remarkable history to life through a breathtaking fusion of art, sound and storytelling.

Rebecca Lewry-Gray, Visitor Experience Manager at Chichester Cathedral, said:

“This has been an extraordinary anniversary year for the Cathedral and the response to this final event in the calendar has been incredible. 

“Every ticket sold not only promises an unforgettable experience but also contributes directly to preserving the Cathedral for generations to come. 

“This will be quite possibly our most spectacular and most poignant autumn exhibition to date.”

The Cathedral has been at the heart of Chichester since its relocation from Selsey in 1075 and has spent 2025 marking its 950th anniversary with a rich programme of concerts, exhibitions and community celebrations.

The Cathedral receives no regular funding from the Government or central church sources and proceeds from the more than 2,500 tickets sold so far will help to preserve its rich heritage and sustain a further nine centuries of faith, community and culture.

This special event is a fundraising activity, raising vital funds for Chichester Cathedral (Registered Charity No. 1205740).
