Review of 8.00pm - Carlisle City of Lights

Overall rating: 5 Verified review

We both enjoyed this event. I enjoyed the music during the second half, at the Castle, better than the first half, probably because of my hearing problems/hearing aids. I also thought the light show was better during the second half.
My only problem at the Castle was the cobbles, making walking and standing a bit of a problem for the elderly (me!)

The only disappointing thing was that the light experience at the cathedral was outside - I was under the impression that it was inside. The main reason I got the tickets was to see the show inside the cathedral.

In my opinion an extremely mediocre event. I struggled to relate to or recognise the theme. Not at all worth the ticket money paid and not a patch on February 2020 show in the cathedral which was breath taking - absolutely amazing. A real disappointment in comparison

The light show was merely a poorly constructed PowerPoint presentation on the side of a building which only lasted a few minutes. Lots of queues with huge crowds being herded through small entrances and paths. No point spending £8 per ticket for the event as many people were just joining the queue once the ticket inspectors had gone passed. Could've saved almost £50.
From the amount of people crammed into this event its easily made over a million in revenue so I'm amazed at how low quality the shows were.

The first display at the cathedral was rather odd being influenced by oriental themes but the one at the castle was excellent.
