Light Up Lancaster returns for 2024 on November 7th, 8th & 9th!

So prepare to join us for a magical exploration of the city of Lancaster as you’ve never seen it before…

This year the popular Thursday night is back, so why not plan an after-school or after-work treat? Pop into the city centre for your evening meal, then enjoy a feast for the eyes as you discover enchanting light-artworks and captivating installations in Lancaster’s streets and squares?
The festival continues on Friday and Saturday – and each evening it runs from 5pm – 10pm, giving you longer to explore, experience and enjoy the installations based on this year’s theme: The Art of Science!

There are no set times and no need to book for anything except the BSL tours, so just turn up whenever you want!

The main festival programme is HERE!

We were so pleased with the success of the very first Explore Week, taking place from the 21 – 25 October. We hope you had a great time learning about light, art and science with us, and would like to thank all our coordinators, supporters and workshop facilitators!
