'Magical' light and sound show back at cathedral

Peterborough Cathedral will be transformed with an immersive display of light and sound from Tuesday

A digital light and sound show has returned to a city cathedral for a fourth year.

Peterborough Cathedral is beginning its festive season with the launch of Starlight by Luxmuralis, billed as an immersive light and sound display.

From Tuesday, the historic building will be transformed with the installation on the interior walls and ceiling and the West Front.

Paul Stainton, head of marketing at the cathedral, said the outdoor event was free of charge this year, making it more accessible for families.

Tickets are required for the interior display.

Last year, the cathedral's interior was illuminated by a series of moving images for a multi-sensory experience.

Mr Stainton said: “We’re thrilled to welcome Luxmuralis back to the Cathedral.

"This year's show promises to be more magical than ever, and by offering the outdoor display for free, we’re making it accessible for every family to experience the wonder that Starlight brings.

"It’s a chance for the community to come together and enjoy this truly unique event in the heart of our city.”

The display will be on at the 900-year-old cathedral until Saturday.
