About the event

Patronal Festival with Installation of Non-Residentiary Canons
On St Nicholas Day, the choir of Durham Cathedral will join Newcastle Cathedral’s choir in a special celebration of our patron saint. Together, we will honour St Nicholas’ enduring legacy of kindness and generosity, reflecting on how these values can inspire the way we live and care for others today.

Update – November 2025:

The Bishop of Newcastle, the Right Reverend Dr Helen-Ann Hartley, is pleased to announce the appointment of new Non-Residentiary Canons at Newcastle Cathedral who will be installed at the Patronal Festival.

The Revd Dr Hannah Cleugh
The Revd Nigel Taylor
Mr Chris Elder
Mrs Jacqueline Atkinson

All are welcome to attend this service. The preacher will be Right Reverend Dr Pete Wilcox, Bishop of Sheffield since 2017, having previously been Dean of Liverpool and served in parishes in Teesside and Tyneside.
