Lights at Mawson set to stun with spectacular on-lake flame show

Lights at Mawson is back, and this year it’s set to be the biggest, brightest and most spectacular yet, running from 11 – 13 July.

The free event is expected to attract more than 15,000 attendees and, for the first time, will feature an on-lake flame show by renowned display specialists Howard & Sons.

Sir Douglas Mawson Lake will be the centrepiece of the event, bursting with flame, light and pyrotechnics, performed three times each night.

In addition to the show-stopping flame display, attendees can enjoy:

  • Immersive light trail with Nylon Zoo light-up inflatables
  • Interactive light maze
  • Magical fairy garden
  • LED spinning workshops
  • Silent disco
  • Live acoustic music.

Local cafes and restaurants will be open to serve the community. The event delivers a significant economic boost to the area, with businesses reporting their highest weekly sales during the event.

Mawson Lakes Boulevard will be transformed into a family-friendly hub with games and live entertainment.

Join the three-night celebration from Friday 11 to Sunday 13 July, 5pm to 10pm nightly, at Mawson Lakes.
