Northern Lights Dumfries

Northern Lights Dumfries returns to light up the town with an exciting mix of returning favourites and brand-new experiences.
Explore a spectacular trail of light, sound and projection as Dumfries is transformed after dark, with immersive installations bringing the town’s streets, landmarks and hidden corners to life.

A much-loved favourite, Burns Light, is returning, inviting visitors to experience this stunning celebration of Robert Burns through light and projection.
But that’s not all. This year brings a brand-new Rave Experience, taking the Northern Lights trail in a completely different direction with an immersive celebration of music, light and energy.

Alongside the light trail, Rabbie’s Winter Village adds to the atmosphere with food and drink, live entertainment and a welcoming space to gather with friends and family.

Whether you’re returning to experience your favourite installations or discovering Northern Lights Dumfries for the first time, there’s plenty to see, hear and experience throughout the town.
