Light Up Bristol: Take a look around magical Christmas trail at Ashton Court Estate
Light Up Bristol has seen Ashton Court Estate transformed into a winter wonderland as the countdown to Christmas begins.
The illuminated walking experience is delighting people from across the city and beyond with its sparkling displays set in the ambient grounds of the historic mansion.
Visitors to the trail will encounter a dazzling glitter tree, butterfly garden, ice palace and, last but by no means least, a stunning projector show spanning across the frontage of Ashton Court.
The event is running until Christmas Eve with session slots beginning at 4.30pm. The last session will begin at 8.30pm.
If you’re feeling peckish food stalls selling marshmallows to toast at the on-site fire pits as well as hot chocolate, mulled wine, pizza and other treats are dotted along the trail, which takes around 30 – 45 minutes to complete.
Please note that visitors are asked to provide proof of vaccination or a negative coronavirus test result at the entrance.
