Fountains by Floodlight

The abbey ruins lit after dark on selected October evenings, which is the one time of year Fountains is worth an evening rather than an afternoon

On selected evenings in October the National Trust lights the abbey and the water garden after dark. It is a different place at night, and it books out.

Fountains is about a thirty-five minute drive from Thirsk. Ticketing is separate from ordinary daytime entry, including for members, so check the National Trust page rather than assuming your card covers it.

Nothing left on the calendar for this one. Next year's dates usually go up a few months ahead, and we will add them when they do.

Coming for this? We are at 87 Market Place. The menu, hours and parking, or book a table if there are six or more of you.
