Carlisle Cathedral

Located in the heart of Carlisle, our Cathedral provides a distinctive historic setting for concerts, conferences, ceremonies, exhibitions, dinners, meetings and private events. We offer a range of flexible spaces within our historic precinct, from the impressive Cathedral itself to the medieval Fratry Hall, Fratry Undercroft, Prior’s Room and modern Cathedral Café. Our Cathedral can accommodate up to 600 guests, while our smaller rooms provide more intimate settings for meetings, presentations, receptions and private gatherings. We combine historic architecture with practical event facilities, catering options and professional support to help organisers create memorable occasions. Our central location also provides convenient access to Carlisle city centre and nearby transport and parking facilities. Whether hosting a large concert, formal ceremony, corporate meeting or smaller gathering, we provide a unique environment that combines heritage, character and flexible event spaces.
