Popular lightshow Glow returns to RHS Bridgewater

The Christmas Glow event has returned to the RHS Bridgewater this winter, with the popular light show set to entertain residents.

The popular light show will run at RHS Bridgewater from November 27 and will continue until December 30.

The winter illuminations consist of colourful lights over trees and shrubbery, and guests will be able to visit the returning Moonlight Gardener.

The gardener will showcase a brand new light show which includes levitating glass orbs, juggling birds and amazing special effects which is perfect for any age of visitors.

A new aspect for 2024 is a new enchanting route through the woodlands and gardens.

The work named ‘Stop’ by the Old Frame Yard, will offer guests the chance to look at giant petunias that come to life at a touch.

Family and friends will be able to take pictures in front of the sparkling star arch, and will be entertained by plenty of fun activities for children.

Guests will be able to explore the yew domes lit up like twinkly hedgehogs, swirling snowflake lights along your path and glittering tunnels that turn the garden into a captivating wonderland.

To keep in the festive spirit, the Garden Cottage Shepherd’s Hut is offering seasonal cakes and hot chocolate and mulled wine.

The complex also boasts an Italian-themed café serving pizza, cannoli and arancini, and a marshmallow toasting station next to Garden Cottage.

Along the twinkling trail, there will be enchanting music and magical narration from Jack Frost – A Winter Story, which is a new musical album written and narrated by host of BBC show Gardener’s world, Alan Titchmarsh.

There is also a special Glow SEN event on December 10 from 4.30pm – 8pm. It has been adapted to have fewer visitors, minimal noise and fewer distractions for those with sensory needs, with up to two carers being able to go for free.

All tickets must be pre-booked online and visitors must show a booking reference on the day of visit.

Prices range from £12.95 to £15.50 for adults and £6.95 to £8.25 for children. Children under five can visit for free.

Residents have the chance to explore the parks until the December 30 – more information can be found here.
