For the fifth year running, Hunter Valley Gardens is set to host Christmas Lights Spectacular, Australia’s biggest Christmas lights display and the largest display of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere.
A wonderful experience for the whole family to enjoy, the Gardens will be alive with colour every night from Thursday 10 November until Saturday 14 January, 2012 (excluding Christmas Day and Night). Christmas Lights Spectacular has won the prestigious Hunter Region Tourism Award for Best Festival or Event for three years running, placing the Hunter Valley Gardens event into the Hall of Fame within this category. Gates will open nightly from 6.30 pm, with pre-lights entertainment and food stalls so that families can make an evening of it. The lights display will commence at 7.30 pm.
There will also be a number of new and astonishing features including The Twelve Days of Christmas music and light display in the Border Garden, the cactus musical extravaganza, and the three mega trees that are an incredible 12, 9 and 6 metres high. There are also new lights and music displays throughout the Storybook Garden and the greatest story ever told at the nativity scene.
Entry to Christmas Lights Spectacular will be $12.50 for children aged between four and 15 and $17.50 for adults and children 16 and older. Children aged three and under receive free entry and every child will receive a free glow stick.
