A fantastic sound and light show is set to illuminate Peterborough Cathedral with a new art projection by Luxmuralis.
The first event last year was a huge success and now the second son et lumière performance, The Beginning based on the Nativity, will illuminate this iconic building from Wednesday November 23 to Saturday November 26.
This sequel to The Angels are Coming will once again transform the magnificent west front and nave of Peterborough Cathedral with incredible images - it's a must-see event for all the family in the build up to Christmas.

It starts with a colourful light projection onto the outside of the Cathedral, accompanied by music composed by David Harper, then you enter the medieval building to experience an immersive light and sound installation, this time inspired by the fragility and beauty of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
ESP went along last year and thought it was a real winter highlight. Other visitors described the show as ‘magnificent, beautiful and festive’, ‘truly memorable and mesmerising’ and ‘a very moving experience from start to finish’.
The Very Revd Chris Dalliston, Dean of Peterborough said: “I know how much visitors enjoyed the light show from Luxmuralis last year and we can’t wait to see this year’s presentation.
"Advent and Christmas are always very special times at Peterborough Cathedral and this will be a wonderful way to be reminded of the Nativity story in a fresh and exciting way as we begin our Christmas preparations.”
Ticket prices for the light show have been frozen at last year’s levels for the Wednesday and Thursday evenings, with a small rise for the Friday and Saturday evenings.
Entry to the show is by timed ticket.
