π€© WHAT TO EXPECT
Our dedicated team will once again turn our Collection & Garden into an illuminated experience that shows off Shuttleworth in a whole new light (see what we did there?)
Produced entirely in-house, our trail lets you explore Swiss Gardenβs quirky features aglow in vibrant colours, with some fun interactive elements and photo-worthy moments.
In the Collection hangars our iconic aircraft, vehicles and machines will be bathed in light, adding to the awesome revere these fantastic machines inspire.
For a unique twist on a winter light trail look no further.
As this is an outside event so warm waterproof protective clothing and footwear is recommended.
