Luxmuralis Crown and Coronation at Canterbury Cathedral

Canterbury Cathedral hosts this amazing new immersive light and sound installation by artists 'Luxmuralis'. 'Crown and Coronation' brings 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 features stunning imagery spanning more than 1,000 years of history, enhanced by the magnificence of Canterbury Cathedral - host to many kings and queens throughout its incredible history - where the projections and soundscape sweep through the amazing interiors. The Crown Jewels, the objects at the very heart of the Coronation ceremony, are projected through detailed footage and an emotive musical score evoking the sensation of having a private audience with the magnificent collection.
Crown and Coronation has been created by Luxmuralis working with Historic Royal Palaces - the charity that cares for the Tower of London - as part of an artistic collaboration between artist Peter Walker and composer David Harper. Luxmuralis worked with Canterbury Cathedral in September 2023, with the hugely popular Renaissance show.
Crown and Coronation launched in November 2023 with a spectacular installation within the walls of the Tower of London, just months after the world witnessed the Crown Jewels in use at a Coronation for the first time in 70 years. The show is undertaking a UK-wide tour of famous landmarks and locations until December 2025.
