To celebrate our BIG birthday, we’ll be transporting visitors back in time to 1875 by hosting a spectacular, immersive Victorian Fair with traditional entertainment, games, illusions, and circus skills workshops. Classic organ grinders and street music will add to the magical atmosphere of this outdoor family festival. We’ll be dressed up in our Victorian best so feel free to join us and enjoy the show!
The LEGO man will be running special ‘Make & Take’ workshops where visitors can build an exclusive 150th anniversary model of the lift (sessions charged at £15 per person).
The Anderton Boat Lift - Northwich’s iconic ‘Cathedral of Canals’ - is the world’s first major commercial boat lift and 2025 marks the 150th anniversary of this unique Scheduled Monument. We look forward to welcoming as many people as possible to join us to help us celebrate our special year.
