Something for the Weekend - Lincoln Festival of History picture special
Did you attend the second Lincoln Festival of History earlier this month?
The series of historic displays, enlightening lectures, time-travelling tours and tournaments has been hailed a great success by the organisers at City of Lincoln Council.
And Stuart Wilde’s great images from the events show the crowds of visitors who attended across the first May bank holiday weekend enjoying the action across the city.
Pictured above are Council Leader Cllr Naomi Tweddle and Cllr Josh Wells arriving through the festival’s time tunnel to enjoy the festival.
Were you among those crowds? If so the Events in Lincoln team at the council would like to hear about your experience.
“Tell us about it in our survey and following the completion, you'll receive a confirmation message with a link which will take you to the form to enter the prize draw for a chance to win a £50 Lincolnshire gift voucher.”
You don’t have to wait for next year to learn more about the city’s heritage as two more events will be held later this month.
