Horncastle Window Wanderland 2026

Horncastle Window Wanderland is back for our 6th festival in 2026!

So we need your help to turn Horncastle’s historic streets into a magical outdoor gallery for everyone to enjoy. 

Window Wanderlands have been held around the world, but Horncastle was the first Lincolnshire town to take part. 

It’s since become a favourite part of the town’s festive calendar, bringing the whole community together to get creative.

This is an event for everyone, with local shops, groups, and homes all taking part by decorating their windows. 

We can’t wait to see what you come up with this year!

Fancy signing up?

Taking part is FREE, and everyone is welcome. You can make a display in the windows of your flat, house, business, school, shop – or even your front garden!

Please don’t feel intimidated. Your display could be as simple as a candle, book or fairy-lights in a window. Or you could go all out and decorate a whole bay window, or project a design outside. 

Anything goes… as long as it’s family-friendly!

What to do next:

To take part just visit our Facebook page and fill out our sign-up form (pinned to top).

We’ll send you a ‘Welcome Pack’ with more information and examples to help you get inspired.

Make sure you tell your friends and neighbours you’re taking part and ask them to get involved, the more the merrier!

Need craft supplies? Perkins Newsagents, Horncastle Hobby House and Fletcher & Hughes all have stock of coloured tissue paper and tracing paper. Why not pay them a visit and help support our local businesses?
