Pentecost        

The feast of Pentecost remembers how the early Christians took their message onto the streets with enthusiasm and energy. Pentecost Celebrations want to capture something of that same spirit of celebration.  People from across Merseyside normally gather in Hope Street to celebrate the Christian Festival of Pentecost. Inspired by the Pope’s visit to the city in 1982, this event has become a regular annual feature of life in Liverpool.

Annual Pentecost Celebration - 

Pilgrims of Hope

This Sunday 8 June 2025, 3-5pm 

This Sunday, 8th of June at 3 pm, walk with us in a powerful celebration of Pentecost, as we journey together between Liverpool Cathedral and the Metropolitan Cathedral. Starting at Liverpool Cathedral this symbolic walk unites all communities in faith, reflection and joy. The event will bring together Christians from across the city and beyond.

Whether you join every year or it's your first time, all are welcome to take part in this joyful and meaningful act of witness through Liverpool's streets. Come as you are and be part of this special tradition! No booking required. 

Celebrations will begin with a short act of worship at Liverpool Cathedral. We will then walk along Hope Street to the Metropolitan Cathedral where we will hear the story of Pentecost and after the blessing can visit stalls linked to the Jubilee themes.  The choirs of both cathedrals and a Salvation Army Band will be involved at both Cathedrals/along Hope Street. Please join in the giant family games at the end. We are expecting an ice cream van to be there too. 

Please note that the stalls and giant family games will be located on the piazza of the Metropolitan Cathedral or inside the Cathedral - depending on the weather.
