The Light Before Christmas at Liverpool Cathedral: The Manger
16:30 PM - 20:30 PM
Liverpool Cathedral Light and Sound show by Luxmuralis
After the huge success of last year's event, The Light Before Christmas is returning to Liverpool Cathedral for Christmas 2023.
Enjoy the most wonderful time of year as the magnificent Gothic interior of the iconic building becomes a canvas for a sequence of dazzling light and sound artworks.
Last year's sell-out event wowed audiences and became a "must-visit" Christmas event.
This year, award-winning artistic collaboration Luxmuralis are back with 'Light Before Christmas: The Manger', the second of The Light Before Christmas series.
This beautiful, immersive experience will take visitors on an incredible journey through the Nativity story celebrating the true magic of Christmas.
