LIT is returning and is ready to light up your world – and Wyndham Park – between March 27 and April 13.
Running each night from 7-11pm, the autumn evenings will be filled with giant iridescent bubbles and towering wildflowers, glowing animal sculptures, fantastical trees, projections and more.
Tarutharu The Kaurna Skink, a 27-metre long glowing sculpture created by A Blanck Canvas in collaboration with First Nations artist Elizabeth Close and Jack Buckskin, will represent the creativity of the Kaurna Peoples.
You can also create and interact with a holographic-like projection of yourself in real time with ‘Ctrl-Alt-Self’ by Studio John Fish.
If you don’t know quite where you’re going in life, Wyndham’s own Ariadne Concha’s new light work ‘Presence Passage’ might give a sense of direction for a little while.
The Guardians, a forest-like inflatable installation by Matthew Aberline of The Beautiful and Useful Studio, will celebrate the beauty of Australian wildflowers and the rich colours of the land.
Following the introduction of a sensory night in 2024, the program has expanded in 2025 to include two sensory friendly evenings on Wednesday, April 2 and April 9.
These nights are designed for those who may benefit from experiencing LIT in a more comfortable environment, or have different sensory needs, to ensure the event is as accessible as possible.
Event staff will be on deck and happy to help, and you won’t have trouble knowing who to turn to when you see their pink high-visibility vests.
