Expect an electric atmosphere, unforgettable visuals and an after-dark adventure bursting with surprises.

There’s plenty to enjoy throughout the day, with live DJs, street performers and interactive entertainment to keep everyone buzzing. Kids can go wild on thrilling fairground rides, while adults sample bold flavours from top food vendors and soak up the atmosphere around roaring fire pits.
