Light Night Wigan 2024 - Relaxed Hour

Our relaxed time slot is designed to welcome and support those who find loud and crowded events daunting, taking place at a time before the park gets too dark and will offer less contrast with the light displays.

This relaxed time slot will benefit those who live with conditions such as autism, dementia, learning disabilities, mental health concerns, those who may make involuntary noises or anyone who could benefit from a more informal, relaxed environment.

The trail will take around 90mins to explore, but feel free to wander, meander and take the artworks in at your own pace. The event will open to all from 5pm, when it is expected to get a lot busier.

The trail site is accessible for wheelchair users and pushchairs. Please be advised there may be uneven surfaces in certain areas of the trail. Only assistance dogs will be permitted on site.

Mesnes Park will be closed to non-ticket holders on the evenings of 21st-23rd November, you will need a ticket to enter the site, so please make sure you book enough tickets for all members of your party.

Tickets will be scanned upon entry to the park. Once tickets sell out you are invited to sign up to a waiting list and will be notified when tickets become available. Tickets are free and we reserve the right to cancel any tickets that are being sold on to third parties for a profit.

Food and drink will be available in the park and from local businesses on the evenings of the trail. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to keep up to date with event announcements and information.

Light Night Wigan is curated by Things That Go On Things and is supported by Wigan Council, Arts Council England and Light Up The North.
