🌈 Colourscape at Stockwood Discovery Centre, Luton
Saturday 09 August 2025
Time: 10:30 - 16:30
🌈 Colourscape comes to Luton for the first time on August 9th & 10th 2025! A large walk-in labyrinth of colour and light will fill the lawn at Stockwood Discovery Centre.
🗓 2025 DATES
▪️Saturday 9th August
▪️Sunday 10th August
▪️AGES:
Suitable for all ages book now and don a primary-coloured cloak to become part of the colour experience and step into a new world of intense colour and light. This is a contemporary music, art and dance event that everyone can enjoy from babies to 100-year-olds!
🤩 WHAT TO EXPECT
Colourscape is formed of many interlinked chambers of primary colours to create a labyrinth (each chamber c. 4M 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.
🕥 TIMES
▪️Daily opening times: 10:30am to 16:30pm
▪️Last entry: 16:00
▪️Duration: 30 minutes
▪️Booking slots: Are available every 10 minutes from 10:30 to 16:00.
NOTE: Performance Times vs. Opening Times: Performances usually begin 30 minutes after opening and end 30 minutes before closing.
♿ WHEELCHAIR USERS
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.
🌧 WEATHER INFORMATION
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.
WHAT TO KNOW
🔸️ Visitors are asked to remove shoes on entry to help protect the structure – socks optional but recommended.
🔸️ Pushchairs should be left at the entrance unless required for specific mobility needs.

💖 CHARITY STALLS
We believe that it is our responsibility to re-pay the community for all the support
we’ve enjoyed over 25 years. So we have always made it our responsibility
to help charities with a special offer. We don’t give money but help them to help
themselves by giving them a very special deal on the price of a pitch. We particularly like having the smaller charities with us. For instance every year a husband and wife raise money for a special school to have an outing and any money left over is used towards much-needed equipment. Speak to one of our team, or phone us on 07852 70 70 74.
🗺 HOW TO FIND US
You can find us on the A507 just outside of Baldock. Coming from the A1 take the second exit from the ‘Tesco’ roundabout, follow this road to the next roundabout and then turn right. We are on the right just up the road.
📍For Sat navs use SG7 6RD which will bring you close enough to the field.
