Weekend at the Asylum (aka The Asylum Steampunk Festival) is the longest running and biggest Steampunk event in the world. The ultimate annual celebration of steampunk.

We will be back in the Historic Quarter of Lincoln from Thursday evening 22 August for those who like to start their Asylum at The Advance Guard the evening before the daytime content starts, right through to the evening of Monday 26 August. The festival attracts visitors from all around the world and for just four days the historic streets of the city become a victorianesque world which owes as much to “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea” and “Back to the Future” as Lincoln’s genuine and beautiful history.
