What's on in Lincoln This Week

As a new week unfolds, you might be planning your itinerary and wondering about things to do in Lincoln. You can find a varied selection of activities to engage with, whether you prefer the outdoors, live entertainment, or a social gathering. This period offers a snapshot of the city's diverse calendar, giving you several options to consider. Consider using the city’s bus network, or the railway line, to easily access venues across Lincoln. Be mindful of the steep gradient approaching Castle Square if walking, and limited parking near popular sites.

For those who enjoy fresh air and being with others, there's an opportunity to join an organised walk taking in some of the local pathways, an ideal way to explore a new route or revisit a familiar one with company. The Spa Trail, following the route of the old railway line, provides a particularly scenic option. If you are inclined towards music, you can find a live performance featuring popular tribute acts at The Drill, offering a chance to enjoy well-known sounds in a local setting. Several venues offer weekly themed nights, with options spanning various genres to suit different tastes. Check listings for performances at local bars and pubs.

Beyond the entertainment, you'll also notice options for more relaxed social engagement, such as a themed bingo event that combines games with dining. For those with a specific interest in community development or faith-based discussions, a conference focused on church growth offers a chance for learning and connection within that sphere. The Foss Dyke, and the River Witham, offer pleasant routes for a different perspective on the city, though boat access is limited by the narrow passage under High Bridge. If the weather is good, take advantage of Lincoln’s green spaces for a more relaxed afternoon. Remember that on-site car parks can become muddy in poor conditions.

Check the listings below for times and venues. Be aware that restoration work at Lincoln Cathedral may mean scaffolding partially obstructs views.
