Venue
Chester Cathedral
Address
St Werburgh Street Chester, CH1 2DY, United Kingdom

Experience Poppy Fields at Chester Cathedral; a poignant and moving sound and light show that will take you on an immersive journey through fine art sound and light installations transforming the Cathedral spaces, creating a walking curated experience.

Poppy Fields will utilise a brand-new route around the Cathedral, with a reduced number of people entering per session via the south west porch.

The 2025 show incorporates a collection of fine art projection artworks that reflect on the end of World War One and World War Two, but more importantly look at the hopes and wishes for peace in our world and the future.
