ALL TICKETS PURCHASED FROM NOW WILL BE FINAL PURCHASES AND CANNOT BE CHANGED TO ANOTHER TIME SLOT.

We have had to make the tough call to change our 'Illuminate Light & Sound Show' event to a drive through version rather than the original walk-through event that we had planned. This way, you'll be able to still experience the light & sound show, but from the comfort of your car & in the safety of your bubble!

Watch Ferrymead Heritage Park come to life at night with beautiful lights that will astound & amaze. We can't wait to see you there!!

When you purchase your tickets, you will be asked to select a particular time slot. Please make sure that you turn up to the event in your allocated time slot. This is to ensure that we keep an even traffic flow and all of the people that have purchased their tickets can get through the show in a timely and safe manner.
