Norwich Cathedral will host a Vigil for Peace on 15 March 2026 to provide residents in Norwich, Norfolk, with a quiet space for communal reflection. The service is scheduled to run from 17:00 to 18:00 and is open to all members of the public.

The event is intended to offer a time for prayer and solidarity for those affected by war and conflict around the world. According to Network Norwich, the service gives people the opportunity to come together and express a shared desire for peace.

The cathedral often serves as a central venue for the community during times of global unrest or national reflection. This gathering is designed to be a supportive and neutral space for anyone looking for a moment of calm in the city centre.

By hosting the vigil, the cathedral and the Diocese of Norwich continue their tradition of acting as a site for local solidarity. The hour of reflection aims to help residents process their concerns about international events in a supportive environment.
