Accrington town centre set to be transformed as part of spectacular light show next month

‘Enlighten’ will welcome some of the most incredible UK artists to Accrington, with art installations and performances to savour.

The free-to-attend event, organised by Hyndburn Borough Council, will take place on October 25, 26 and 27 from 5pm to 9pm.

There will also be a free performance by solo violinist David Aspin on the ground floor of the town hall on October 27.

Additionally, there will be a ticketed live music gig, organised by event partner Baby Rock Sampler, for parents/carers and their children at 1pm on October 27.

The displays of light-art and performance will be located in and around five key heritage buildings in the town centre, including St James' Church, Accrington Town Hall, Accrington Library, Market Chambers and the Victorian Arcade.

Inspired by Accrington and running as a light trail around the town centre, visitors are encouraged to immerse themselves in the creativity on offer, with the chance to see many well-known heritage buildings in a very different light, with contemporary art experiences to explore.
