St Paul’s Cathedral has been here for over 1,400 years. It has been built and rebuilt five times, and always its main purpose has been as a place of worship and prayer.

Service Schedule

St Paul's is open for services and sightseeing, Monday to Saturday, and services and private prayer on Sunday.
Service times and opening times can vary so please check the Cathedral calendar page for further information.

Following the Government’s changes to COVID-19 measures in England on Monday 19 July, we have updated our guidance to visiting the Cathedral for worship, sightseeing and for our staff and volunteers. Please visit our COVID-19 updates page to find out more on what to expect during your visit.

At the heart of the life of St Paul’s Cathedral is the daily pattern of prayer and worship. This daily rhythm of prayer forms the framework of all that we do.

We begin and end the day with prayer. Then at each hour our doors are open we invite our visitors and pilgrims to join in the Lord’s Prayer, in their own language, as they pause. Music is integral to the worshipping and educational life of the Cathedral, with a number of our services sung by the Cathedral Choir or visiting choirs from around the world.

All services are free to enter, with no booking required unless specified – please see the service schedule for details.
