Experience the magic of Christmas with a new illuminated light trail for 2023. The after-dark trail is now a must-see event, with a variety of twinkling lights, seasonal sounds, and festive fun. You’ll even catch a glimpse of Father Christmas along the way!
As we wander through the trail, we’ll discover heart-shaped arches glittering in the moonlight, glowing tunnels filled with stars, and an eight-metre sphere filled with over 20,000 moving lights. These are just a few of the many creations that await you. After an enchanting Lakeside walk, we’ll see the ever-popular dancing reflections in the colourful Cascades. It’s an unforgettable experience that you won’t want to miss!

Transcript as follows;
The Blenheim Illuminations this year are quite the experience. They really capture the Christmas spirit.
The Water Terrace was a rainbow of shimmering lights that made us pause in wonder.
The illuminated trees were a favourite, especially the pink ones.
Churchill's garden was very atmospheric lit up in glowing flames.
The Rose garden had the most amazing light display it was quite mesmerising.
We emerged into a giant flower garden with roses towering over us.
The star tunnel was a stunning ever changing tunnel of light, it felt quite magical and we lingered to see all the colours shimmer though.
Turning the corner we were amazed to see a full on water and light display with the backdrop of the cascade falls.
The halfway point was especially lovely this year, with benches and a lit up canopy to sit under. Warm drinks and spirits were available with a crepe bar too and we very much enjoyed our marsh mellows and lingered round the fire pit to warm up.
For the romantics there is a Tunnel of pink love hearts which would surely be a great spot to propose.
I loved the themed areas from New years full of clocks to a flurry of letters heading to Santa's post office and the myriad of lights from floating candles to lanterns and strings of light nestled in the grass.
Santa was on hand to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and was happy to take photos with his fans.
The grand finale is a massive tunnel of lights to dance and play in as well as being the perfect selfie spot.
We left pretty much convinced it was Christmas Eve and anticipating gifts under our tree in the morning!
Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New year!

Can you remember what other food outlets there are along the trail?

Hi :) The main food was available by the market with just a few snacks and drinks at the halfway point. Blenheim might be able to give you a list.
