Lumiere is the UK’s leading light festival. The free-to-attend, four-day event will take place from 16-19 November 2023 in Durham.
Produced by leading arts producers Artichoke and commissioned by Durham County Council, Lumiere will reimagine Durham’s iconic buildings and spaces with a thought-provoking and entertaining new programme of spectacular light artworks and exclusive commissions by UK and internationally-renowned artists who have something to say about our world.
Lumiere celebrates Durham as a national and international centre for innovative arts and cultural activity. People, especially audiences, volunteers and participants, are at the heart of Lumiere, with an ambition for the festival to be as inclusive as possible.
