If going late make sure you see the display in the nave first, as they finish showing this at 9pm.

Brilliant event in the wonderful setting of Carlisle Cathedral. However the use of cameras/mobiles must be banned during the light show. Much was spoilt by people holding up mobiles which both shielded the view whilst blinding you with the bright screen lights. Wouldn't be allowed in pictures /plays for this exact reason.

Nice building but really poor as a screen/background. Poor seating position made watching really awkward. The later exhibit was better in most respects. Lack of any information on entry did not help at all, though we discovered it was available.

The space was not ideal because of the internal architecture which spoiled and distorted the images. Also there wasn’t enough time between sessions for everyone to sit down before the start of the show. Apart from that I enjoyed the concept and the music.

I was extremely disappointed with this experience, particularly regarding the "music" that was chosen to accompany the lights display. To say I was underwhelmed could even be an exaggeration. The very title given the exhibition: SPACE: God, the Universe and Everything indicated, to me at least, that one might expect to experience something more profound than actually materialised. In the end it was simply noisy and shallow, almost wholly due to to the audio impact. I know there was a warning that the sound effects would be loud but I am convinced that a more sensitive approach, given the building and its own splendid music traditions, would have made the event much more of a moving experience.

Great in the cathedral but the other venues were disappointing as just still lights no projection.
