Castle of Light Returns to Edinburgh this Winter

Uncover the hidden treasures of Edinburgh Castle this winter, as the iconic landmark is illuminated once again with untold tales from Scotland’s past.

Castle of Light: Hidden Treasures will come to life for eight weeks throughout the festive season and the spectacular event is set to boast even more magic than before!

Expect wonder, enchantment and a spectacle of colour, as dazzling animations sweep throughout the castle grounds, transforming the historic attraction into an interactive wonderland – this year, using stunning visuals, state-of-the-art projections and captivating storytelling to unravel the re-discovery of the Honours of Scotland (also known as the Crown Jewels) with Rex, the lovable lion rampant, in what is a truly magical experience for all the family.

Now in its second year, Castle of Light is set to be bigger and brighter than before, with bespoke video content, brand new installations and more than double the lighting than last year, cementing the show’s title as the biggest visual experience to hit the city centre.

Dates: Friday 19 November 2021 to Sunday 9 January 2022*
