Are you open during the Asylum Steampunk Festival?

The Lincoln Imporium is more than just a shop—it’s a journey into Lincoln’s rich history and folklore. Inspired by the legend of the Lincoln Imp, we’ve brought to life the tales of mischief and mystery.

As the home of The Ancient Order of Fabled Imp Catchers, we invite visitors to rehome handcrafted imps and become part of a centuries-old story that intertwines with the city’s heritage.

Yes! Each August bank holiday the Cathedral Quarter of Lincoln in which the shop is based is transformed into a haven of steampunks and enthusiasts who come from far and wide to enjoy four days at one of the largest and longest running steampunk festivals in the world. From traders of finery, stonemasons, wood carving to tea duelling and everything in between this annual event is one not to be missed. 

With our shop at 36 Steep Hill in the heart of this area we are often nestled amongst one of the market areas and will be open with extended opening hours during the weekend of events.  Organised by the Ministry of Steampunk, a full list of events and further information about the weekend can be found here.
