Welcome to our perfectly lovely corner of Lincoln!

 

Our guide is your treasure map to discovering the hidden gems of The Bailgate area, our special Cathedral City and to the Lincolnshire countryside beyond.

The places we like to visit, things we’d like to do, Follie events & the adventures we’ve been on.... inspiring us to create memories together.

LOCAL EVENTS GUIDE

This year is flying by and with longer summer days & (hopefully) even more sunshine ahead, as well as father's day on the 21st June, there’s plenty happening across Lincolnshire this month.


The biggest events in the county calendar are the Lincolnshire Show & Lincoln Concerts Live at Lincoln Castle, but amongst our usual monthly favourites, the summer season also marks the return of the Lincoln Big Open Top Bus Tour & some selected open open days at Lincoln Medieval Bishops Palace.


And for the hottest ticket in town (in my humble opinion) look no further than the Usher Art Gallery where The Papestry exhibition will be on show (the Bayeux what?)...





There's always so much happening across our county, it's impossible to include everything, these are just my personal picks; so here's a few more places to discover local events & inspirtation for this month.



 
 
 

I forget how lovely autumn is until it's all of a sudden here; the leaves are turning, the air’s got that crisp edge, but there are still plenty of gorgeous days to enjoy before the clocks change at the end of the month & there's plenty to choose from in this month's Follie guide; we head strait in to a first weekend of culture, crafts & physical tests of endurance with the Lincoln Half Marathon. Then the weekend after you can fill your boots at the ever-popular Sausage Festival, celebrating the world famous Lincolnshire Sausage. And as the nights draw in, things take a spookier turn with pumpkin cannons, scarecrows, monstersm ghost trains and an outdoor Halloween cinema to finish the month with a bit of fun (and a few chills!).

As with every Follie What’s On Guide, there will always be events I might not know about - so if I’ve missed something, please do let me know and I’ll happily share it. And of course, we don’t all have the same interests, so here are a few brilliant online resources to help you discover what else is going on in our great big, brilliant county.
