Wonderlights returns to Marlay Park this winter with an all-new theme for 2025: “The Magic of Winter.” This immersive outdoor light trail invites visitors to experience the park like never before — under the glow of over a million twinkling lights, artistic installations, and spectacular visual effects.
The trail takes you on a journey through a Frozen Forest, glowing winter meadows, and arctic wildlife scenes, culminating in a stunning 30-metre hydro screen projected over the lake. The standout feature this year is the Cathedral Tunnel, standing 5 metres tall and stretching 30 metres long — an unforgettable walk-through of light and sound.
While not a performance in the traditional sense, Wonderlights creates a sensory-rich environment with curated soundscapes, projections, and atmospheric lighting designed to evoke the magic of the season. The Alpine Food & Drink Village adds a festive twist, offering treats and warm drinks to complete the evening.
Held in the scenic grounds of Marlay Park in Rathfarnham, Dublin, this fully accessible event is suitable for all ages and promises an unforgettable seasonal experience.
