LUMINISCENCE makes its UK debut, magically transforming Manchester Cathedral into an fully immersive realm of sound, narrative, and illumination.

This 360° video projection spectacle features fresh choral renditions of classic Manchester tunes performed by Collectives Gospel Choir. A specially commissioned script penned by BAFTA Award winner Tim Whitnall, and narration by renowned Manchester actor Christopher Eccleston, breathe new life into the Cathedral in awe-inspiring ways.

Over a million people have already been captivated by LUMINISCENCE—don’t miss your opportunity to be next.

Went along not knowing what to expect. The cathedral was the perfect setting and the light show very impressive. The choir were fabulous with amazing voices and Christopher Ecclestons narration fascinating enhanced by his northern voice. Made us proud to be ‘Mancs’

A fantastic light show with thought provoking commentary and wonderful music and choir! We thoroughly enjoyed it!

Atmospheric and inspiring. As a Mancunian who has lived in Southport for 45 years I always love to come home, the whole story and performance made me feel humble and proud to be a native of such a great City.

I didn’t receive confirmation that I had purchased the tickets and the voucher didn’t arrive until 24 hours before the concert

"The light show was spectacular and the gospel singers were brilliant.

Excellent production. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening
