The heritage steam railway turns around at Kingswear station ready for the return journey, giving passengers the opportunity to alight briefly to take photos of the train and the picturesque historic town of Dartmouth, set on the mouth of the river Dart. Operating on selected dates between November 24 and December 30, early booking is essential so you don't miss this incredible event. The installation Halo will be a highlight of the occasion, inviting visitors to engage in an interactive experience.

Stuart Galbraith, CEO of Kilimanjaro Live, added, "Christmas at Eltham Palace promises to be a truly extraordinary experience. Abi Marsh, Head of Historic Properties at English Heritage, London said: "We're delighted to collaborate with Kilimanjaro Live to launch a brand-new Christmas light trail this festive season. The Light Trail will be closed on the following dates: 27th 28th, 29th, 30th November and 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 25th and 26th December 2023. The Plotters' Forest at Raby Castle has cooked up an "enchanting journey" promising families the opportunity to "create cherished memories". There are twinkling lights and festive music guiding a path through the Adventure Playground, which opened last year. Festival goers can also enjoy live music in the bandstand, 'Selfie Lane' and a sparkling light tunnel. The fairy trail, which saw its debut in Australia earlier this year, will lead visitors through a woodland glade to an illuminated fairy door.This session will enable visitors with additional needs to experience our attraction in a comfortable and non-threatening environment. Working in collaboration with renowned creative director Katherine Jewkes, the event will showcase an impressive trail of illuminations and installations. The Iluminated Light Trail was beautifully presented, it really captured the twinkly nature of Xmas, a lovely walk round.” The crash, which happened around 10 p.m. PT, caused the fireworks to go off, resulting in flashes and explosions above the highway.

Our Illuminated Light Trail is a magical, night-time Christmas light show that showcases structures, installations, and illuminations created especially for Winter Glow by our teams of local creative artists, lighting designers and craft-persons. Explore the trail with our brand new theme – The Golden Snowflake. Join Jingle on his quest across the North Pole to bring the Golden Snowflake home. Northern Lights is set to debut in Leazes Park this year to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the city centre green space, and has already been billed as one of the top trails in the country. There will be 10 - 12 light attractions along a mile-long accessible route, as well as a Christmas village with food and drink stalls among the way. With its rich historical significance, this magnificent venue sets the stage for unforgettable holiday memories." A collision on the Trans-Canada Highway east of Vancouver resulted in an hour-long light show on Thursday night after the crash caused a cargo of fireworks to ignite.
