Wonderlights – Malahide Castle & Gardens

This event has ended

Malahide Castle , Friday 14th November - Sunday 28th December

Following on from the huge successes of previous years, we return to our North Dublin location of Malahide Castle & Gardens for our 5th year.

This year’s theme is “Once Upon a Glow”

Once Upon a Glow will bring a mesmerising display of over one million lights to the historic estate of Malahide Castle & Gardens. This year’s theme will be brought to life with the return of fan favourites, including the Portal of Light Tunnel, standing 5 meters high and 10 meters wide, the stunning Symphony of Light pond show, and the immersive projection mapping onto the castle itself.

There are also exciting new additions for 2025. Get ready to be transported through the vibrant colours of ‘Taste of Holland’, and witness hot air balloons aglow. Journey through the portal to the Mystical Forest, and experience our biggest Love Area yet, featuring a dreamlike set to share with your loved ones.

With specially composed music and a landscape filled with atmospheric light and sound, this is a captivating experience for all ages.
