Gaia Relaxed Viewing Sessions

These sessions are neurodiversity-friendly and offer a more accessible Gaia viewing experience.

All are welcome to experience the chance to see our planet as never before when Truro Cathedral welcomes Luke Jerram’s spectacular touring artwork, Gaia, this October.
Relaxed Viewing Sessions are designed to be neurodiversity-friendly and offer a more accessible and enjoyable viewing experience. During these times, the permitted number of visitors will be reduced, the soundtrack accompanying Gaia will be played at a lower volume, and visitors will be asked, where possible, to keep noise levels low.

There will be three Relaxed Viewing Sessions whilst Gaia is in situ, taking place from 15:00-16:00 on:

Wednesday 11 October*
Tuesday 17 October
Tuesday 24 October

*Please note, due to a funeral taking place, this date has been moved and is different to the date you may have seen advertised previously.

There is no ticketing and no need to book to attend the Relaxed Viewing Sessions, however, please be aware some queuing may be required due to the reduced capacity.

There will be no charge for entry to see Gaia at Truro Cathedral during Relaxed Viewing Sessions, with donations of £5/adult encouraged. Your donation enables the cathedral to bring events such as Gaia to the community of Cornwall as well as care for the historic building.
