Lightopia London – a beautiful, illumination event

Posted on November 18, 2022September 3, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted experience] Each and every year, Dann, Claire and I are all go to Lightopia. We’ve been going for years; before it was at the Crystal Palace! There are actually two Lightopia events on at the same time; one in Manchester and one in London. As we are closer to the latter, that’s the one we always go to. This year, they actually invited us along, which was a super exciting opportunity. It is worth noting that there is parking at Lightopia, but you do need to purchase a seperate ticket and they do run out fast!

A Day out at Belhus Woods Country Park | A Gnome Trail

Posted on December 27, 2021September 3, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to getting out and about, there are a few parks and woods that the children really, really love. Belhus Woods Country Park, which includes a musical-themed play park, is one of those places that the children always want to go too. Last year, around the month of December, they had a reindeer trail which everyone enjoyed, so we hopped along again in the muddy wintertime to see if a new trail was set up – and to our delight, they had put together a gnome trail for us all!

A Day Out at Lightopia London 2021

Posted on December 18, 2021November 15, 2024 by Jupiter

It is one of our yearly traditions to attend Lightopia! Previously, we have waited until January to go, but this year we figured we should grab tickets while we can, in case the event wasn’t on for as long as previous years. Lightopia, if you do not know, is an event ran by the same people who ran Dino Kingdom! They put on a huge showcase of light sculptures and music, that you can walk around, at various locations in the United Kingdom. We went along to Lightopia London, at Crystal Palace Park this year, as a double date with Claire and her partner.

A Day Out at Enlightened Hyde Park

Posted on December 13, 2021November 15, 2024 by Jupiter

This year, we wanted to take the children out to a light trail! There are quite a few large light trails that aren’t too far from us, but as the children really love going out to Hyland Park, we figured Enlightened at Hyland Estate, would make for an interesting one to visit. Enlightened is an annual lights festival, but we had never been before, and this year, the website stated it was bigger and better than ever – which sounds pretty good to us!

Exploring Blackpool Illuminations

Posted on November 21, 2024November 11, 2024 by Jupiter

While traveling up to Scotland, we decided to stop off and check out the Blackpool Illuniations. I have never been to these illuminations, though we visit a large number of light trails all throughout England, so I was pretty pumped to check them out. Dann had been many years ago, when he was a child, but he didn’t remember it particularly well.

The Blackpool Illuminations are free to see as they are just dotted around the main bit of Blackpool. There isn’t a sort of check in or ticket system and you can often find a lot of cars slowly driving down the road looking at all of the lights out there. We got there just before the lights were switched on and weren’t really sure where to start, so we walked to the big Blackpool sign, which had a long queue waiting. We decided not to wait for a picture and instead started on the walk.
