Lincoln Castle’s Illuminated Wall Walk has returned with hundreds of trees, millions of lights and a sneak peek of Lucy the Dragon’s lair.
Each year, the walls of Lincoln Castle are illuminated with golden lights over the Christmas period, offering a beautiful view of one of the city’s most recognisable landmarks.
This year, the festive sparkle has been expanded to the castle grounds as well as the walls, with an elaborate lighting design spreading along the walkway towards Lincoln Crown Court.

This is due to the event starting after the conclusion of the Lincoln Christmas Market, meaning the castle grounds, typically used for market stalls, are available for decoration.
The walk boasts over 150 Christmas trees, more than a kilometre of festive lighting, various decorations across the castle grounds and walls, and a few additional surprises.

It is running from December 10 until December 23, open daily from 5.30pm to 9pm.
Mechanical reindeer can be found in a hut on the side of the castle grounds, while people on the wall walk can head down into the lair of Lucy the Dragon.
