Great news! The rain has stopped, and the lights are working perfectly.

Our light show will go ahead as planned tonight at 6:00 PM. We can’t wait to see you there for a magical evening!

Thank you for your patience and support.

Due to the current bad weather and concerns over the condition of the lights, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone our light show scheduled for today.

The event will now take place tomorrow, Sunday, 8th December, at the same time. We want to ensure everything is working perfectly so that we can provide the best experience for everyone attending.

Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to see you tomorrow for a fantastic show! Stay safe and dry in the meantime.
