About

Canary Wharf’s spectacular Winter Lights festival returns to London for its tenth edition!

A crowd favourite, the Winter Lights festival showcases exceptional light artworks from acclaimed artists and studios around the world.

This year, the theme DREAMSCAPE will take you on a journey through surreal, ethereal, and uniquely human experiences, transforming Canary Wharf into a landscape of discovery and possibility.

Canary Wharf will become a dazzling open-air exhibition, playing host to some of the world’s most visionary light artists — and it’s all entirely free for the public to enjoy.

Instrumental in putting light art on London’s cultural map, Winter Lights continues to mesmerise audiences with its otherworldly installations. This year’s theme, "DREAMSCAPE", invites visitors to explore the surreal and extraordinary. Expect interactivity, movement, projection, playfulness, and colour in a celebration of 10 years of light art.

Winter Lights is free to visit. Download map on the day to help guide you around the installations, or you can pick one up from one of the friendly event stewards when you arrive. The installations will be open daily from 5–10pm.

* The exhibition is open daily and is free to explore.
