Enlighten Festival has expanded across the lake to illuminate the city!

City Illuminations @Enlighten, by the City Renewal Authority, will dazzle Canberrans with an illuminated trail experience running through Civic and surrounds from 4 March until 14 March. The city will be transformed in the day and night with impressive lighting, sculptures and interactive experiences including a world premiere of 'Ephemeral', a major illuminated installation of giant bubbles centred in Civic Square. Each evening, from 4-14 March, Ephemeral will be shrouded in sound, bubbles and smoke, as they pulse and change colours. Take some time out and enjoy the show which will occur every half an hour whilst grabbing a drink at the Canberra Theatre Centre's Terrace 'Bubble' Bar.

This installation will be complemented by other illuminated sculptures including; an illuminated sculpture , 'Kin' in Garema Place; kaleidoscopes of butterflies 'Fluttering Home' near the Sydney and Melbourne Buildings; and interactive 'Mini Beasts' in multiple locations of the Canberra Centre.

A free hop-on hop-off shuttle bus will be travelling on a loop around the National Triangle and various city centre locations to help connect all the Enlighten sites. Make a night of Enlighten this year by grabbing dinner and drinks in the city and taking advantage of the free shuttle bus to see all the illuminations around Canberra.
