Lights at Mawson dazzle in July
The beloved Lights at Mawson event is set to shine once more, bringing illuminating displays, entertainment, and community spirit to the heart of Mawson Lakes.
The event has become a highlight on the local calendar and a favourite for families across the north.
This year’s festival from Friday 11 July to Sunday 13 July will feature enchanting illuminated sculptures, live performances, and family-friendly activities, appealing to visitors of all ages.
For the first time, the lake itself will become part of the show, with a spectacular new on-water installation set to surprise and delight. You’ll have to come and check it out for yourselves.
Set along the main lake and the bustling Mawson Lakes Boulevard, the event offers a lively setting close to public transport.
The easy parking and variety of food and entertainment nearby, makes Lights at Mawson the perfect budget-friendly, local alternative to light shows, with the bonus of supporting local business.
With local cafes and restaurants open late each night, it’s easy to turn your visit into a full evening out. Come along to enjoy three nights of colour, creativity, and community in one of the city’s most picturesque locations.
