Crown and Coronation – Wells Cathedral – 27th February – 2nd March 2024

The splendour of Coronations and the Crown Jewels were bought to Somerset in an immersive light show at Wells Cathedral in February. Crown and Coronation bought the spectacle, significance, and shared experience of Coronations to life, demonstrating the pivotal role of the Crown Jewels, part of the Royal Collection, within the ceremony.

The show featured stunning imagery spanning more than 1000 years of history, enhanced by the magnificence of Wells Cathedral, where the projections and soundscape swept through the magnificent Gothic building. The Crown Jewels, the objects at the very heart of the Coronation ceremony, were projected into Wells Cathedral through detailed footage and an emotive musical score, evoking the sensation of having a private audience with the magnificent collection.

The Crown and Coronation light show launches just months after the world witnessed the Crown Jewels in use at a Coronation for the first time in 70 years
