The lighting installations and art visuals are outstanding, and there are also special activities for the young ones, such as finding hidden treasures in the castle with Rex and his friends — exciting, right? This year the Castle of Light will host an all-new and expanded visual art show where magical projections dance from castle walls — a perfect opportunity to take loads of memorable and 'instagrammable' photographs basked in a kaleidoscope of colours.
