Get ready for a magical evening as you wander through the enchanting Coombe Abbey Park. You'll be mesmerized by stunning lights and delightful surprises at every twist and turn and with about 13 "wow" moments along this 2.4 km trail, you’re in for a treat!

Take your time and enjoy the journey, which should take between 60 to 90 minutes, depending on your pace. Cosy up by the fire pit to toast some marshmallows—bring your own, or grab some on site. Don't forget to check out the yummy food and drink options at the Kiosk in the Park.

Remember, it's all outdoors, so bundle up warmly and wear some sturdy shoes to keep comfy in the winter chill. While we won't have traditional festive decorations or a visit from Father Christmas (he's busy at the North Pole!), the experience will be nothing short of magical. Enjoy!

To keep everyone safe and having fun , please stick to the marked trail throughout your visit. Children and vulnerable adults should always have a watchful eye on them. Luminate happens in the winter evenings at a country estate, and areas off the trail might have hidden trip hazards. So, let's keep to the path and follow any advice from our friendly stewards.

Be aware that there are unfenced water areas off the trail at Luminate Coombe, so extra supervision for children and vulnerable adults is important.

Our team will keep an eye on trail conditions, but remember, it's a winter evening event in the great outdoors. A little extra caution will go a long way, especially when supervising kids and vulnerable adults.

Enjoy our interactive light installations—they're there for you to play with! These will be clearly marked, and our helpful stewards will be nearby to guide you. For safety and an enjoyable experience, please avoid touching other light or electrical setups, and keep an eye on the little ones.

For the safety and enjoyment of all our visitors, dogs are NOT permitted at Luminate*

*with the exception of Guide dogs and assistance dogs

We're thrilled to announce that, due to popular demand, Luminate is once again opening its doors to our furry friends on a limited number of special nights! Dogs will be welcome to join their two legged friends on more dates than ever this year. Look for the dog symbol on the calendar.

Our furry friends are welcome on those nights, provided at all times their owners follow the rules below:

All dogs must be accompanied by a responsible adult and remain under the supervision and control of the responsible adult at all times.

2 dogs per adult max

As with all two legged guests, dogs must remain on the clearly marked footpath at all times.

Dogs must be kept on a short lead at all times - no extendable leads please.

Dogs must not be left unattended at any time.

Any dogs behaving aggressively (including towards other dogs) will not be allowed to enter the trail or will be asked to leave. Luminate reserves the right to refuse entry or to remove any dogs we feel are dangerous/a safety risk to other dogs and visitors or any which are causing a disturbance and disrupting the event for other visitors.

Please be a responsible dog owner - clean up after your pet and use the bins provided.

Thank you in advance for co-operating with these rules to ensure everyone’s safety and enjoyment. Failure to comply with any of the above rules will result in your dog being denied entry/removed from the trail.

*** XL BULLY DOGS**We do not allow XL Bully Dogs and/or banned/dangerous breed dogs at GBFF. Entry will be denied to any person attempting to bring those breeds on site.

You know your dog best, Luminate is a fun filled magical element, with flashing lights, smoke effects, loud music and lots of people. If your dog is likely to be unsettled/distressed /aggressive because of any of this, please do not bring them. #dog days
