Due to the popularity of these events, pre-booking is essential. Each attendee requires a ticket, and children must be accompanied by an adult. Please dress warmly, as it can get cooler after sunset.
Be aware that the route may have minimal to no lighting, with a mix of hard and soft paths. If you have any accessibility concerns, please reach out to us before booking so we can discuss options.
A portable hearing loop is available upon request by emailing events@theparkstrust.com.
