Overview

Prepare to be amazed and discover a whole new world of light and colour at Harwell Campus.

The Light Project's newest event is a Luminarium, a spectacular walk-through installation that fills visitors with light, colour, and calm.

Created by the world-renowned Architects of Air, this monumental inflatable structure invites visitors to slow down and explore at their own pace. Inside, winding pathways and soaring domes glow with radiant colour as daylight filters through the translucent fabric, creating an ever-changing, immersive experience.

Luminarium is designed to be gentle, inclusive, and open to everyone. There's no right route and no rush - just space to wander, look, and enjoy being immersed in colour. Whether you're visiting with family, friends, or taking a quiet moment for yourself, Luminarium offers a rare chance to experience art from the inside out.

Suitable for all ages. A truly memorable experience for curious minds and calm seekers alike.

This event looks amazing, we attended an event here in January which was very popular, many times and dates were already sold out, but I have managed to purchase 8 tickets, 4 for the 2.30-3 time slot and 4 for the 3-3.30 time slot.
