Light by Night - Pukekura Park Light Trail
Add to my REAL NZ Festival trip planner Added to your REAL NZ Festival trip plannerNew Plymouth's iconic Pukekura Park is transformed after dark as Light by Night — Pukekura Park Light Trail showcases the Park's waterfalls, lakes and trees, and paths shine with thousands of colourful lighting effects.
The Festival, a major summer attraction for the city since 1993, is being extended to coincide with the three Rugby World Cup 2011 games in Taranaki.
In 2005 the Festival was named Creative New Zealand's premier Cultural Festival and Arts Event and recently Pukekura Park and the Festival of Lights have advanced to the coveted "Mayfair" spot in the new version of New Zealand’s Monopoly board game.
