The Light Festival will take visitors along several different routes from Cabot Circus to Park Street, via locations such as Castle Bridge, Temple Gardens, Queen Square, Harbourside, St George’s Bristol and the City Centre, discovering different installations along the way. At each location, visitors will be able to see, experience and enjoy six world premiere works light art installations that are brand new for Bristol, alongside some of the best of the UK’s talent, all making their Bristol debut at carefully selected locations.
From 5pm-10pm, visitors will be able to wander through the city when the installations will shine a light in a few unexpected places as well as illuminating some of Bristol’s most iconic landmarks. This year, two daylight installations will add a new dimension to the event offering a chance to experience the event during the day.
