Dover Winter Light Up (NEW DATE)
NEW DATE 8th February 2025
Dover Town Council and Future Foundry are sad to announce that Dover’s Winter Light Up will be postponed due to Storm Darragh forecast to reach Dover this weekend. All festivities, activities and the lantern procession which were to be taking place on Saturday 7th of December are on hold until February 8th 2025.
We have been very lucky over the past 4 years to have had perfect conditions for Dover’s Winter Light Up. However with 60mph gusts predicted on Saturday, it will not be possible to run the event safely.
The great news is that Dover’s Winter Light Up has been rescheduled for Saturday the 8th of February. It will be a festival of light when we need it most – at the end of winter just before the first signs of spring. We will be offering all the enchanting activities we had planned for this weekend, with circus performances, cabaret, music, rides, markets, workshops and Future Foundry’s magical lantern procession – all just in time for the start of spring.
In the meantime stay safe during Storm Darragh and we wish you a wonderful festive, winter season.

3pm–9pm
Pencester Gardens, Dover
Ang mga pamilya mula sa Dover at higit pa ay iniimbitahan sa isang mahiwagang pagdiriwang sa Dover Winter Light Up 2024, nagaganap sa Pencester Gardens. Co-organized ni Dover Town Council at Future Foundry, ang kaganapan sa taong ito ay nangangako ng isang kapana-panabik na halo ng mga light display, libreng aktibidad, at libangan para sa lahat ng edad.
Libangan sa Gabi at Prusisyon ng Lantern (LIBRE):
Ang highlight ng kaganapan ay ang prusisyon ng parol, pinangunahan ng Future Foundry, na nagtatampok ng mga star lantern at malalaking disenyo na inspirasyon ng wildlife ng Kent, nilikha ng parehong mga lokal na artista at mga mag-aaral. Masisiyahan din ang mga bisita sa nakakasilaw kilos ng apoy, Mga pagtatanghal ng LED, mga palabas na glow-in-the-dark, at isang biyahe sa kaakit-akit na simulator na nagtatampok Ang taong yari sa niyebe.
Sa Market Square, humanga sa pinalamutian nang maganda Christmas tree, itinakda laban sa iconic na backdrop ng Dover Castle, at ang iluminado stags sa Maison Dieu House. Mula 3pm, Pencester Gardens magho-host ng mga maligayang pamilihan na may mga natatanging likha ng mga lokal na gumagawa, artist, Ang Forge Art Club at mga independiyenteng negosyo. Huwag palampasin ang pinalamutian na bike display ng 69MCC Club din sa Pencester Gardens.
Pagsapit ng gabi, sundin ang Lantern Trail, na dumadaan sa Pencester Gardens, Cannon Street, at Biggin Street. Nagtatampok ang trail ng mga gawa-gawang nilalang (Bahay ng Diyos), wildlife ng Kent (orihinal na mga disenyo ng organizer), at mga mini lantern ng Sea Life na kinomisyon sa pamamagitan ng UK Shared Prosperity Fund. Ang mga lokal na negosyo ay sumasali sa kasiyahan sa pamamagitan ng pag-iilaw sa kanilang mga shopfront, pagdaragdag sa festive glow ng mga ilaw sa taglamig ng bayan, provided by Dover Town Council.

Relax in Pencester Gardens’ food and beverage village, with seating and cabaret-style performances by the Anxious Pickle Club.
