The River of Light celebrations are back this year from October 25 to November 4, and we got a special preview of the amazing installations that will be on display. Each year, parts of Liverpool city center and the waterfront are adorned with bright and colorful installations created by talented light artists from around the world. This year’s theme is ‘Play’, which has inspired 12 new installations that aim to turn the city into a fun playground for people of all ages to enjoy.
The organizers have mentioned that some of the installations will provoke deeper thoughts about the concept of play and what it means for individuals, communities, and the city as a whole. To celebrate Diwali, the Festival of Light, on November 1, Culture Liverpool is collaborating with the Liverpool-based Indian arts and culture organization, Milap, to host activities near the Rangoli Mirrored Cosmos installation.
