Space, The Universe and Everything

Space, The Universe and Everything is a light and sound show like no other. In just one night, travel through space, light and time - from the first step on the Moon to the edge of the Universe then back again, without leaving the inside of Liverpool Cathedral.

Become immersed in this new stunning installation as you walk through the architectural splendour of Liverpool Cathedral. Watch and listen as the Cathedral is transformed by sound and light art while you journey around the building.

The artistic collaboration that brought you Angel Wings, Luxmuralis, will employ multiple lights and sound displays which merge and link to create a spectacular internal sound and light show.

Sculptor Peter Walker and composer David Harper make up the award-winning team behind Luxmuralis.
