Quick Actions

Tips & Advice

  • Wear sensible, closed-toe shoes as heels and sandals are not permitted due to uneven floors and stairs.
  • Bring your own torch, but avoid head torches to prevent blinding other attendees during vigils.
  • Dress warmly in layers, as the castle can become very cold, even in summer.
  • Arrive 15 minutes before the event start time to ensure a smooth check-in process.
  • If you feel scared, a designated safe area is available for you to take a break until you feel ready to continue.
