28th Annual Christmas at the Cathedral

28th Annual Christmas at the Cathedral

December 12-15, 2024

Cathedral of St. Joseph
521 N Duluth Avenue
Sioux Falls, SD

Enjoy an evening of beautiful music and moving storytelling as we celebrate the hope and joy of God’s incarnation at the 28th Annual Christmas at the Cathedral performance! This year’s theme, “Go in Peace,” is a first-hand account of the monumental events surrounding Jesus’ birth and His miraculous mission and impact, as experienced by Simeon and Anna. Simeon, who was told that he would not die until he saw the Messiah, and Anna, who prayed night and day in the temple, persevered in faith.

Christmas at the Cathedral benefits the Bishop Dudley Hospitality House, as well as the ongoing care of the Cathedral of St. Joseph, one of the region’s most significant civic and sacred landmarks. Christmas is not just a historical event or celebration, it is something that happens within each of us every moment of every day. Join us for this truly memorable event!
