Over £30k in sponsorship has been raised for this year's annual Light Trail at The Alnwick Garden, supporting the charity by making it bigger and better than ever before.

Now in its 6th year, The Alnwick Garden's Light Trail has become a much-anticipated annual event, attracting visitors from near and far, and this year will run from the 18th of November 2024 to the 1st of January 2025, with brand new installations, more lights, and new soundtracks and visuals.

Sponsors include national and local businesses including WorldPay, Arnold Clark, Ad Gefrin, Eldon Square, Northern Powergrid, Fusion Spaces, Northern Stage, Utilita Arena and Sage Wealth Management which will be sponsoring its namesake, The Sage Wealth Management Grand Cascade installation.

Senior Partnerships Manager at The Alnwick Garden, Lauren St Hilaire, said: “For people across the North East and beyond, the Winter Light Trail holds special meaning.

“It has become a staple part of The Alnwick Garden’s calendar, and we are incredibly grateful for the support and generosity of our sponsors, which will go towards continuing to fulfil our charitable objectives and overall social impact, to which The Alnwick Garden Trust is renowned for.

“The sponsors’ values are closely aligned with our own in helping local communities so it’s brilliant to be working with such a varied, yet collaborative group of people to light up this festive season.”

On the 9th and 10th of November The Alnwick Garden will be holding a special ‘offers’ weekend where anyone who purchases a light trail ticket will have access to exclusive offers from its sponsors.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to sample festive snacks and winter warmers from a mixture of local vendors as The Alnwick Garden continues its tradition of supporting local businesses and bringing a taste of Northumberland to its vast programme of events.

This year, for the price of one entry, guests can also visit the magical Christmas village of Lilidorei. The Alnwick Garden has included a pricing structure on set dates to suit every budget and availability.
