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!
