World Book Night at Southwark Cathedral

Step into our candlelight space for The Big Read-In, where you are invited to slow down, settle in and lose yourself in a good book within a safe, calm and beautifully atmospheric space.Mingle with fellow book lovers as you share thoughts, swap stories, and take part in our book swap. Throughout the evening take part in mini guided tours that reveal the cathedral’s rich literary heritage of poets, playwrights and authors.Tickets are free, but we strongly advise pre-booking to avoid disappointment.
