Wonder Lights at Malahide Castle

View map & Directions
14th November till 28th December 2025

Returning for another captivating season, Wonderlights at Malahide Castle promises a spectacular journey through light, sound, and storytelling. Running from 14 November 2025, this year’s theme, “Once Upon a Glow,” transforms the historic castle grounds into a magical winter wonderland.

Visitors can expect immersive installations including the new Portal of Light Tunnel — a 5-metre-high, 10-metre-wide illuminated archway — and the visually stunning Symphony of Light pond display. Projection mapping will bring the castle façade to life, blending historic architecture with modern light artistry.

A curated audio-visual program guides guests through themed zones such as the Mystical Forest, Taste of Holland, and the romantic Love Area, all crafted to create an engaging and atmospheric evening walk. While there are no traditional stage performances, the event is deeply experiential, using music and lighting to create a sense of movement and narrative throughout the trail.

Set in the landscaped grounds of Malahide Castle & Gardens, the event is suitable for all ages and fully accessible, making it a highlight of Dublin’s winter events calendar.
