What people said:

“Just back from the Science Son et Lumiere show at Carlisle. I love a light show and this one was fab. You could see the lasers from Penrith!”

“Loved the Carlisle in Lights last night… the science theme was great with the emphasis on women.. Photos don’t do the shows justice, really worth seeing if you are in Carlisle tonight. Also some awesome music and it was nice to see the City bustling.”

“Wonderful sights and sounds. Well done to everyone involved”
