One week to go...

Follow our sparkling trail of over one million twinkling lights, illuminating heritage trees and buildings through the Gardens. Fairy-tale meets fantasy in a world of singing trees, larger-than-life flora, ribbons of light, giant baubles, and a flickering Fire Garden. The Palm House dazzles with jets of light and kaleidoscopic projections in the musical light show.

Sneak peak... Every year the trail route changes with new light installations from artists and entertainment specialists. Amongst this year’s amazing creations will be:

Lightbench by Bernd Spiecker How do you sit on light? Designed to look like a conventional park bench or seat, Bernard Spiecker’s benches glow and change colour from blue to green to yellow. Sledgetree by Creatmosphere and Hellowood Imagine an 11-metre design structure made from 365 illuminated wooden sledges to represent each day of the year. Sledgetree is an exceptional piece of art, light and architecture reinterpreting the classic Christmas tree.
