About this event
Following the consecration of the Cathedral in 1924, 20 years after the laying of the foundation stone, the Cathedral continues to mark this occasion in July each year.
Consecration Sunday is an opportunity for the whole Cathedral community to come together and rededicate itself and the building, recognising it was built by the people, for the people to the Glory of God.
