The ever-popular Twilight Nights are returning for another year.

This includes a sensory-sensitive relaxed Twilight Night on Wednesday 23 October from 6.30-8.30pm and on Thursday 24 October from 7-9pm, our crowd-pleasing Twilight Lantern Parade starting from Bow Street Mall at 6:40pm will weave its way through Lisburn City Centre to Wallace Park and will be complemented by special LED drumming performances from SPARK! culminating in a magnificent fireworks and laser show. Revellers can also look forward to a fantastic array of neon illuminations, entertainers, and musicians who will pop up among the park’s illuminated trails. Both events will be complemented by an artisan food village. LCCC’s Chair of Communities and Wellbeing, Councillor Jonathan Craig said: “It gives me immense pleasure to welcome our two Twilight Nights back again for another year as the council’s signature artistic and creative events for people of all ages from across the Lisburn and Castlereagh area. “Our local schools have been busy undertaking arts-based workshops in preparation for the Twilight Lantern Parade as well as magical displays for Wallace Park, which will highlight their imaginative talents by transforming our beautiful Victorian Wallace Park into a theatrical wonderland that will dazzle and delight. “I am also thrilled that we can again host a sensory-sensitive relaxed evening with all the fun but none of the noise to ensure that we reach as wide audience as possible. This will include a dedicated Sensory Bus, timed Silent Discos, low level music and walkabout friendly characters. A donation from the proceeds of ticket sales will be given to this year’s Mayoral charity, Emerge Counselling Service.” E-Tickets for each Twilight Night are postcode restricted in the first instance to Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council area residents, who can purchase them online from 1pm on Thursday 3 October.
