Carlisle Cathedral Carlisle reviews by real event-goers

Review of 7.00 pm - Carlisle City Of Lights: Hadrian’s Wall 1900

Well organised and interesting but would have been better if there had been some spoken/ subtitled commentary. Also the shops near the cathedral missed a trick by not being open

Our only comment would be that volume of the music at the castle whixh was too oud. We appreciate it is difficult to strike a balance for all

Fantastic evening showcasing our wonderful city 😃🎉

A lot of money for not a lot. 2 films shown were practically the same. Both films were unimaginative and kids lost interest. Badly organised having to wait for a long time to enter the Castle made longer as needed people before to come back out.

Basically paid £8 to see some images projected on a wall. Was very disappointed that there was no light show I thought it would be more than it was.

Stunning light show. Very well organised. We would have liked to see or hear some explanation about the history.

It wasn't as good as I was expecting it to be. It could have included more of a 'light show' rather than just images projected onto a wall.

Review of 6.45pm - Carlisle City Of Lights: Hadrian’s Wall 1900

This could have been so much better with some commentary - loved the light show, but an opportunity was missed to explain the history. Not a history buff myself, but some more explanation would have added to the experience via projected text or occasional voiceover to share 1900 glorious years.

Lived up to expectations having attended two previous lux muralis events.

A friend told me it was very disappointing, so I didnt drive from Kendal to Carlisle to see it although I had tickets.

Enjoyable but would have liked more varied lights on the actual buildings not just the slide show. Also not sure how much it would have meant to anyone not already familiar with the events depicted.

An excellent relaxed & enjoyable evening😊

Excellent light show, well organised

Review of 7.30 pm - Carlisle City Of Lights: Hadrian’s Wall 1900

We went to the Luminax production in Durham Cathedral and were blown away. Sadly this was not on a similar scale. We were with a guest who was disappointed that there was no commentary on the films and found the walking to the two different sites quite testing. It is a shame not to use the inside of the cathedral which is magnificent. The staff were helpful but the event a little underwhelming

Review of 6.45pm - Carlisle City Of Lights: Hadrian’s Wall 1900

Light shows clearer, better than last time..though dates could have been left on slightly longer. I missed the interior castle & light show on the castle that were there last time. The music & lasers were fantastic.
A bit expensive for 17year olds. Everyone has to stay at school past 16 these days so pricing structure is lagging behind here. The atmosphere was great: you felt it was a privilege to live here.
