The highly-awaited Christmas Special Stamps for 2024 have been revealed, featuring a very special Liverpool monument.

An original illustration of Liverpool Cathedral has been chosen to feature on this year’s First Class stamp, a fitting tribute as the stunning building celebrates its centenary year.

Consecrated on July 19, 1924, the majestic Anglican cathedral is the largest in Britain - and the fifth largest in the world - and has stood proudly for 100 years as an integral part of the city’s community.

The Very Revd Dr Sue Jones, Dean of Liverpool said Royal Mail’s tribute to the cathedral was a “magnificent way” to mark a “tremendous year,” adding: “Having always said we are a first-class cathedral we are honoured to be this year’s Christmas First Class stamp.”
