Located in the old railway station this is a great TIC. Obviously a TIC but also a good gift shop and booking office for local events. Prior to Corona virus, in the same building is The Platform that usually has a varied programme of music. Mainly tribute but at the top end of quality. The TIC also serves as the ticket office, not lust for The Platform but also the theatres and attractions in Lancaster. With the 100 bus service every 15 minutes into Lancaster
