Greyfriars – A Place for Music

Welcome to Greyfriars, one of Lincoln’s most remarkable medieval buildings. Dating back almost 800 years, this stunning Grade I listed site offers a truly unique backdrop for events and performances. With its soaring arches, atmospheric stone walls, and central location in the heart of the city, Greyfriars provides an unforgettable setting for music, weddings, conferences, and community gatherings. Whether you’re here to celebrate, to learn, or to perform, Greyfriars is a space where history and creativity meet.
