WE shared the news that Carlisle’s history was brought to the forefront of a recent light installation over the weekend.

The light show, called The Light District – Crown and Coronation, is the latest council-organised art show that illuminated the cathedral and castle.

It started on February 15, and saw people enjoy an attention-grabbing and hypnotic light show in the cathedral.

One of our reporters attended the show and wrote a review of the experience.

Here's what our readers thought of The Light District.

Elaine Walker said: "In a word, excellent," and Pat Kirkup added: "Amazing! Definitely something special for our city to celebrate."

Ray Gregory said: "Stunning, well done Carlisle," while Lyn Bainbridge commented: "Absolutely fabulous presentation, music fabulous. Able to sit in Cathedral and enjoy it all. Very well done Carlisle for getting this. Thank you."

Peter Crellen also said: "Thought it was spectacular, well worth seeing."

One web user said: "Lovely to see [Carlisle Castle] in the colours of the union flag."

The show played on a loop, with programmed lights and pre-recorded sound playing in various parts of the cathedral.

The show was heavily royal in theme and featured plenty of representation of the presiding monarch and the late queen throughout.
