On November 27th, Manchester Cathedral welcomes a unique convergence of sound and heritage: Maxi Priest & David Rodigan LIVE. Prepare for a night where the grandeur of one of the city’s most historic spaces is transformed by the beat and rhythm of cutting-edge dancehall and reggae selections. At the heart of the event, veteran broadcaster and selector David Rodigan takes control, known for his encyclopedic knowledge and electrifying sets that traverse the landscape of dub, roots, and bass-heavy anthems.
Bringing decades of experience from radio and sound clashes alike, Rodigan’s sets are a masterclass in musical narrative and sonic progression. Sharing the evening, Maxi Priest brings his signature melodic flow and crossover style—a voice that bridges lovers rock, reggae fusion, and pop. This event marks a rare opportunity to experience both artists within the atmospheric setting of Manchester Cathedral, where gothic architecture amplifies the music into something transcendent.
Expect high-fidelity sound, expertly curated support, and a diverse crowd united under the cathedral’s vaulted ceilings. This is more than just a concert—it’s a celebration of UK soundsystem culture in a setting as iconic as the artists themselves. Advance tickets are highly recommended.
