From Darkness to Light: The Advent Procession
'From Darkness to Light: The Advent Procession' marks the beginning of Advent at Salisbury Cathedral
All are welcome to join us for this extraordinary service as over 1,000 candles are gradually lit to illuminate the medieval interior, taking us from darkness into light as we embrace the hope of Advent.
Additional information
There are no tickets required for this service, everyone is welcome, entrance to the service is free. Queue numbers will be issued on each night, to ensure fair access to the Cathedral. Please note that saving seats once in the Cathedral will not be permitted, so members of a group wishing to sit together will need to queue together. Once the service has reached the maximum capacity permitted, it will not be possible to admit any further worshippers, so please arrive in good time. In any event, please be seated by 18.40 (Sunday 16.40). Wheelchair users and their carers please queue and once in the Cathedral, will be directed to a designated area in the South Transept. Frail walkers will be able to sit in the Consistory Court (once a queue number has been issued) and join their party, when they reach the entrance.
