Gaia at Rochester Cathedral – Tickets on Sale now
Tickets are now available through the Rochester Cathedral website to see Gaia when it opens on May 24 – or attend one of the events. The programme includes a concert by popular Canadian band, The Abrams and an organ recital for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Rochester Cathedral had record-breaking visitor numbers for the Museum of the Moon, another artwork by Luke Jerram, when it was there in 2020 so advance booking is highly recommended. Free timed tickets are available for visitors during the day while charges apply for evening viewing slots and special events. All tickets can be booked through the Rochester Cathedral website.
Measuring seven metres in diameter, Gaia features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the Earth’s surface. The imagery was compiled by the Visible Earth series, NASA. The artwork provides the opportunity to see our planet on this scale, floating in three-dimensions. A specially made surround sound composition by BAFTA award winning Composer Dan Jones is played alongside the sculpture.
As part of the programme of events, Rochester Cathedral will be focusing on raising awareness of climate change and the Church of England’s intention to be Net Carbon Zero by 2030.
Gaia at Rochester Cathedral has been sponsored by Rochester Riverside Community Fund and the National Lottery for sponsoring Gaia.
Gaia will be on display at Rochester Cathedral from the 24th May – 12th June.
