The event, organised by the Rotary Club of Lincoln Colonia, will see a slide, similar to the giant flume set up in the centre of Bristol and in Wigan, lined along a Lincoln street with riders taking turns to hurtle down on a lilo.
The rotary club organise a number of events in Lincoln such as the Lincoln Santa Fun Run, the Lincoln Sausage Festival and the city’s Swimarathon.
Tickets will be available for a go on the flume via a dedicated website which is currently under construction.
Ticket prices have not yet been disclosed and details of the website will be released during the Easter holidays.
People can receive updates on the upcoming event via the Lincoln Flume Facebook page, and by following @TheLincolnFlume and using #ZoomTheFlume on Twitter.
Plans are really starting to come together now and just crossing the "t's" & dotting the "i's" before the website goes live. #ZoomtheFlume

Tenants living in a large block of council flats on Lincoln’s Ermine Estate have criticised the building’s “run down” condition, highlighting several issues.
Trent View residents, contending with problems such as excessive bird excrement and poor insulation, have also criticised City of Lincoln Council for its delayed handling of ongoing issues like leaks.
As people prepare to go out more in the run up to Christmas, a Lincoln woman who created the globally renowned Ask For Angela not-for-profit scheme is proud to have made the county, and the world, a safer place.
The scheme, launched by Hayley Crawford (pictured above) in 2016, aims to ensure that anyone who is feeling vulnerable or unsafe is able to get the support they need. This could be on a night out, a date, meeting friends and other situations, and it is available to everyone of all genders to help them feel safer.
