Astley Illuminated returns to Chorley on Friday 8 November with light displays, entertainment and more.
Following the success of last year’s Alien Invasion themed event, which saw thousands attend, Astley Hall and Park will come alive with light, music and mystery with this year’s theme Lost at Sea.
The popular, free, family event will feature dazzling light displays, installations, themed interactive performers, and live music plus there will be food and drink to purchase.
Deputy Leader of Chorley Council, Councillor Peter Wilson, said: “We’re looking forward to welcoming visitors to Astley Illuminated, which is always a popular event.
“With new themes for the event being introduced in recent years, it brings something fresh each year for families to enjoy and best of all it’s free entry.”
During the evening, visitors can enter Astley Hall free of charge, where there will be themed installations to enjoy, plus the exterior of the hall and grounds will be transformed by light projections.
Throughout the event there will be craft activities, walkabout performances and live shanty music on the walled garden stage.
Astley Illuminated takes place on Friday 8 November from 5pm to 9pm. For more information, visit the Astley Park website or follow @astleyhallpark on Facebook.
