December 2024

ILLUMINATE will transport you on a magical journey of colour light and sound to bring festive awe and wonder to our gardens. We're truly excited to create a new dazzling display to make your 2024 journey even more special.

The natural features and views of the Landscape Garden come to life at night with spotlights lit trees and coloured paths drawing you up towards the Great Cascade down past beautiful dynamic fountains in the Pear Pond below the Formal Garden before finishing with a show-stopping display in front of Hestercombe House. This stunning experience is approximately the same walking distance as the sold-out 2023 event but even more packed with show-stopping sights and sounds to wow the entire family. Prepare to be awe-inspired at our beautiful gardens as they come to life this Christmas.
