The popular Festive Light tradition is returning to Highfield Campus for the first time since 2018 with not one, but two different events for everyone at the University of Southampton to enjoy! Both events come with a twist – they will take the shape of trails for you to navigate, with plenty of activities to get stuck in along the way.
You can now book your free tickets for the Festive Light Trail, which will take place on Tuesday 30 November from 17:00 on Highfield Campus. The official light switch-on will happen just after 17:00 for a limited number of attendees, so book early to avoid disappointment if you would like to see it. The trail itself will be open between 17:00-20:00, with admission being divided in slots across the three-hour period.
Every ticket will come with a free drink token to be redeemed on site. As you make your way through the trail, you can get into the festive spirit with our stalls, which will have everything from mince pies to mulled wine, as well as a variety of gifts you can get for your friends and family. What is more, you can have your photo taken inside our life-size snow globe, and we will print it for you to keep!
To book your free ticket please go to the Eventbrite page, where you can also find a map of the trail.
The Festive Light Trail is only open to University of Southampton students and staff. If you would like to experience the festive trail with your children, please come along to the outdoor Festive Family Trail on Wednesday 8 December between 16:30-18:00. More information will follow in the upcoming weeks.
