To celebrate 150 years of borough status in Luton, a new heritage trail has landed! There are 150 locations to explore to discover a hidden phrase and your chance to win an epic prize!

You may have noticed some of these signs popping up all over the town recently. Well, they’re all part of the Luton 150 Heritage Trail. To get more people out and exploring the town, Luton Council have partnered with TUI to highlight 150 locations of historic significance. They’re scattered all across the town, and each sign contains an interesting fact you may not have known about the location.

For example, did you know that Luton Central Mosque was one of Britain’s first purpose built large-scale mosques? Or that the Old Moat House is the oldest secular building in South Bedfordshire?

Each sign has a number and letter on it, so when you’re doing the trail you can write the letter in the correctly numbered box to uncover the hidden phrase. Once you’ve uncovered it, you can submit your answer here for the chance to win a free family holiday for up to 4 people from TUI!

Pick up a map from Luton Central Library, or download and print your own here, to take part in the trail. You can also find all the locations on Google Maps here. Find out more about how the trail works, and the competition terms & conditions, here.

Happy exploring!
