< PreviousEntrance fee suspended until 31st August 201650 LINCOLNSHIRETODAYcity is hardly lacking for littlebistros and independentrestaurants putting their own twistson classic British cuisine. Once the lights go out the citycomes alive in other ways, with abustling nightlife that offersoptions to all ages. Although thecity has a University attached to it,it never feels like nights in Lincolnare overflowing with students asone might expect. In many cases itfeels like they have their clubs, andthen there are venues for the oldergeneration offering comedy acts,live music or simply a laid backevening out. These are just aspacked, mind you it’s rare to see alocation with such a lively night life that still manages toavoid turning into a disaster of disorderly violence, butLincoln somehow manages to pull it off. Our advice wouldbe to take a walk down the High Street, which has anumber of lovely bars with live music, before headingdown to the clubbing area if you want the night to go ona little later. It’s impossible to miss thanks to the people inthe streets handing out offers and discounts on entry. Inmost cases they are all clustered quite close together aswell, meaning that the rest of the city need not deal withthe noise and crowds, perfect if your evening plans involvemore of a quiet or romantic vibe.For events taking place in the city you can always readthe ‘what’s on’ section at the back of our own magazine,or log onto our website at www.lincolnshiretoday.net, butthere is also the Visit Lincoln website (visitlincoln.com)which has a dedicated list of events taking place in thecity as they are announced. From markets to concerts, artdisplays to food festivals – there’s always something newgoing on.
