Thornton Manor in Thornton Hough is opening its private park and landscaped gardens to the public for the first time as it launches Winter WonderLight, a spectacular drive-through enchanted forest, lake and lights experience for families to enjoy this Winter.
Whether it’s a gift, a family trip or even the setting for a marriage proposal, tickets have gone on sale for the North West’s most magical event this year.
Opening on Friday 13th November until January 2021, there are no less than nine themed zones of jaw-dropping laser and light illuminations to the sound of some of the greatest film and orchestra soundtracks.
From the safety of your own car, families and bubbles of up to 6 follow a trail through the grounds of the Elizabethan house, travelling from zone to zone of spectacular illuminated displays including:
A spellbinding Northern Lights show by the lake, to the wonders of an LED-lit meadow, and concluding the tour through a snow-covered winter wonderland with giant floating snowflakes.
Completely contactless and Covid-safe, each car takes a dashboard audio box to provide an enhanced in-car sound experience as they travel between each display.
Emma Rainford, Deputy General Manager of Thornton Manor’s Winter WonderLight spoke about the inspiration for the concept of the event. He said: “Winter WonderLight is all about bringing magic, wonder and excitement for families and loved ones this Winter. We all need something to look forward to and keep spirits high.
“The stunning location in the grounds of Thornton Manor and the intimate setting inside your car gives that personal and luxurious ‘theatre box’ seat experience, and the log fire display on the audio box will make you feel warm and cosy!
“We cannot wait to welcome everyone to enjoy this marvellous fusion of festive and theatrical light experiences.”
Tickets are on sale through the Winter WonderLight Eventbrite page https://bit.ly/2TiWHGf
Priced at £39.50 per car (holding up to 6 people), the event lasts approximately 40 minutes.
