Christmas at the Cathedral has become a cherished Sydney tradition, drawing hundreds of thousands of families, children, community groups, and tourists each year to celebrate the festive season through a spectacular display of lights and music.

For over a decade, it has stood out as Sydney's most beloved free Christmas event for families.
Held annually in December at St Mary's Cathedral and the adjacent forecourt, the event welcomes everyone—regardless of faith or cultural background—united by the universal message of peace and hope that Christmas brings.

The heart of Christmas at the Cathedral is to share the true meaning of Christmas: the joy and good news of Jesus' birth, brought to life through creative and immersive experiences.

Stunning visual projections on the Cathedral's façade invite the community to come together, reflect on the message of Christmas, and celebrate the season with their loved ones.
