Prepare to be enchanted one last time as Illuminate The Gardens returns for its grand finale after a dazzling 8-year run at the stunning Sheffield Botanical Gardens. This beloved annual event is more than just a fireworks show—it’s a vibrant, multi-sensory experience designed for all ages, filled with wonder, excitement, and heart-warming community spirit.

With over 10 breath-taking illuminated installations, the gardens will be transformed into a glowing dreamscape. Stroll through twinkling pathways and discover glowing artworks that bring the historic grounds to life in imaginative and unexpected ways. From delicate fairy-lit tunnels to bold, interactive light sculptures,
every corner offers something to discover.

Adding to the magic are walkabout performances that captivate and surprise, creating moments of wonder as performers glide and dance among the crowd. The event will feature two spectacular fireworks displays: an earlier ‘low bangs’ display perfect for young children or those with noise sensitivity, followed by a main show that lights up the sky in a vibrant, high-energy finale.
