Now entering its eighth year, the nightly event brings together local and international artists for a program of free events, performances and exhibitions, culminating in the Solstice Celebration on Saturday June 21. This year’s program will feature the world premiere of Radiant Lines, an interactive, illuminated, large-scale sculptural shrine from the United Kingdom’s Asif Khan.
Federation Square will also host an array of illuminated shrines and will give the public an opporunity to create their own in a custom-built video booth. The program will come to a close with the Solstice Celebration,which falls on the date of the true winter solstice for the first time in The Light in Winter’s history.
