One million lights to illuminate city centre over festive season
In a first-of-its-kind for Northern Ireland, artistic light installations together with audio-visual technology and festive music will allow visitors to the city to experience a new type of festival that will see Lisburn join cities across Europe in celebrating the magic of the season by illuminating their city centres.
During the Lisburn Light Festival, which runs from November 22 through to January 25, a captivating light canopy covering the length and breadth of Bow Street will produce daily light shows and the new 40-foot animated Christmas tree in Market Square will sparkle, glow and flash in radiant colours projecting over the interactive light floor.
