PETER CORRY MBE
Hosting and performing
Originally from Belfast, Peter has performed throughout the World over the last 30 years with his unique voice and with his passionate and personal style always to the fore.
It is a career which includes not only singing but also acting, presenting, producing and directing.
“Christmas at the Cathedral is always such a special occasion. It’s about celebrating the season together in the most beautiful of settings.”
DANA MASTERS
Dana Masters is a jazz-rooted soul singer whose powerful voice and heartfelt storytelling reflect her deep Southern heritage. Blending jazz, soul, and R&B, she captivates audiences with music that is both emotionally raw and richly expressive.
Grounded in jazz yet ever-evolving, Dana’s work is a testament to the power of authentic expression.
Kalon Rae
From the hit TV shows The Voice UK and The X Factor, Kalon Rae is a Donegal based singer songwriter with a unique voice that is as equally at home with pop, rock or a stunning Italian Aria.
Also Featuring
Arco String Quartet
Founded in Belfast in 2003, Arco String Quartet was formed when husband
and wife Clare and Richard Hadwen met whilst members of The Ulster
Orchestra.
the BSPA Voices
The BSPA Voices is a trained choir that was formed in September 2019 due to an increasing demand for BSPA pupils to perform at high profile events.

TIPS FOR OUR GUESTS
- Each access seat comes with a complimentary carer ticket and access seats are along the left hand side of the main central seating block on eventbrite. These can be seen on the event map on Eventbrite. This gives easy access to seats and the shortest distance to toilet facilities
- We know some of our audience like to bring along a small cushion for extra comfort, especially for those who occasionally suffer from lower back discomfort. There are no cushions available at the cathedral so, you are welcome to bring your own.
- The Cathedral is lit by overhead heaters which are on pre show and throughout the show. During the candlelit carol procession at the start of act 2, we are required to turn the heaters off which may see a drop in the temperature in the Cathedral for that brief period. For this reason, you may want to bring an extra layer (even a blanket or hot water bottle if you want to be really snug!)
- There is an accessibility ramp on the left hand side of the audience; we recommend for wheelchair users and those with additional mobility needs to get in touch with us prior to booking your tickets so we can advise on the best seating to have access to these.
- Refreshments will be available at the interval.
