Having seen a number of these type of events, I was unimpressed with this one. The themes were not well put over and the venue adjacent to the cathedral was poor.

Very underwhelming. Basically a slide show of historical events projected onto a wall.

I enjoyed the Carlisle and Roman elements, but it’s still so disjointed having it at the cathedral then the castle. Tickets weren’t even rechecked and anyone could wander in the castle with the crowd. It was so much better the first year inside the cathedral. I support local tourism but £8 is a bit steep when paying for a family.

Needed to be prepared for weather and queuing for a long time outside castle. Presentation at Cathedral was the best.
Overall very entertaining

Review of 7.15pm - Carlisle City Of Lights: Hadrian’s Wall 1900

Show was good, but after the hassle of queuing, waiting, and the crowds, and nowhere to sit, it was just too much for me. Also while the cathedral one was good, we couldn't make out the one in the castle, no commentary, and the pictures were blurry.

Really enjoyed the experience, walking through Cathedral grounds, through Tullie House and into the castle. The information projected on the walls and the music fed into the atmosphere. So much better and enjoyable than a firework display, less damaging to the environment too.

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

Good but not as good as I had hoped, the weather was good if it had rained hard, it would have been disappointing

If you like to see the history of carlisle through lights and music then this is for you
