ColourscapeABOUT
Colourscape is formed of many interlinked chambers of primary colours to create a labyrinth (each chamber approximately 4 metres across). Step forwards and a long view of radiating colours appears. Another step and another view appears until you are surrounded and immersed in the most intense colour and light imaginable. Visitors have described the experience as being like “wrapped in a rainbow” or saying “I felt I could breathe colours!"
You can freely walk anywhere to explore this amazing space and will discover musicians and dancers anywhere inside leading you on a journey of all the senses. The musicians may be found in a large Silver Dome playing unusual instruments - maybe Tibetan Singing bowls or Asian instruments or instruments of water, maybe playing the branch of a tree or a bicycle wheel with a violin bow! And the dancers express the music with creative movement that draws you into the experience.
This is a contemporary music, art and dance event that everyone can enjoy from babies to 100-year-olds!
♿️ Colourscape is fully wheelchair accessible. We do ask people not to come in electric wheelchairs if possible as they often have low-slung batteries that can catch and cause damage. Push along chairs are fine. Motorised mobility scooters will not be permitted.
🌧 Rain does not affect Colourscape - it is lovely in the rain. The only weather that causes us to close is high winds (above 22mph or so). In case of weather-related closure, ticket holders will be contacted with further instructions.

We will meet at 5pm to set up camp. After a welcome briefing there will be a chance to play games or try a nature craft followed by time to enjoy your picnic. We will set up a moth trap. There will then be an opportunity to explore the reserve at dusk with bat detectors, listen for owls and find what might glow in the dark. Following this there will be hot drinks and marshmallows and if the sky is clear some stargazing.
In the morning we will take a look at who slept in the moth trap followed by a light breakfast and an optional short early morning walk around the reserve where we can bug hunt and play a spotting game. Then it will be time to pack down, say goodbye and return the campground to nature.
