The return of the St John's Hospice Moonlight Walk was an incredible night as more than 850 walkers took part.
The walk returned on Saturday night after a year's absence as people gathered at the hospice on Slyne Road to walk nine miles around the local area, many of them doing so in memory of loved ones.
More than £48,000 has been raised to date from Justgiving page donations alone with the final total expected to exceed that considerably.
Walkers wore the green colours of the Lancaster hospice and stopped off at a green-lit Lancaster Castle for a poignant gathering en route.
People were able to add their loved ones' names to a mural at the castle and on a 'Memory Lane' on Morecambe Promenade.
Lily Knight from the fundraising team at the hospice, said: "I am overwhelmed in the best way possible.
"It's been an incredible evening and so much better than we could have ever ever ever expected.
"That amount of money is insane. That's just from people setting up Justgiving pages and sharing to their family and friends, and not even including the traditional sponsorship forms. So that will skyrocket when everyone hands that money in. I'm really looking forward to the full amount."
The full final total is due to be announced in July.
Before setting off, participants were warmed up by Chelsea from CW Fitness, and entertained by the Beyond Radio team, Jennifer's Dancers, and Sarah the stilt walker!
