Ignite at Gibside

A trail of light, lanterns, fantasy and fire. Light up the dark winter nights with Ignite at Gibside.
From 11 to 30 December 2020
The eighteenth-century Georgian splendour of the gardens at Gibside form the perfect setting for this new, after-dark experience. Lit by lanterns, wander between flickering flames and alongside illuminated flora and fantasy, stars and spheres.
Pause among majestic trees for a moment of reflection and make playful discoveries along the route, all set to an inspiring and intriguing soundscape.
Join with family and friends to immerse yourself in the shimmering effects of fire and light. Expect the unexpected with fairies dancing in the trees, fiery fish and woodland wildlife sculpted in willow as you stroll beside the Avenue into an enchanting landscape filled with wonder.
We're working closely with our partners to bring our winter light trail to you safely, in line with government guidance. The safety and wellbeing of our visitors, staff and volunteers is of utmost importance to us.
