A new illumination display in cheshire could attract those on canal boat holidays during the festive period. Illuminess is a flagship event for the ness botanic gardens in neston, using solar-powered lights and bio-fuel generators to turn the gardens into a sparkling wonderland for nine nights.
Organisers promise that this will be a 'unique pre-christmas spectacle', allowing visitors to see the 64-acre award-winning garden in a 'different light'. There will also be audio-visual displays including projected images from the ness botanic gardens' 100-year history, plus a three-metre-high water curtain and dancing fountain.
In addition, there will be a christmas market for those on canal boat holidays to buy gifts and local produce. A christmas bazaar is also taking place at nearby peckforton castle in tarporley, which includes a hog roast and a visit from santa.
The illuminess event is running from december 5th to december 13th and costs £12 for adult, £10 for concessions and £8 for children. |
