It may be the last lingering chills of winter outside, but inside Enlightenment, it’s also the psychedelic blooms of summer, the warm, coppery cascades of autumn and the fresh, emerald glow of spring. Every season has its unique spectrum of colour, and you can witness them all in the space of 30 minutes at this incredible immersive sound and visual show.
Found at The Merchants House of Glasgow, this is a dreamy experience in an architectural gem that will add an extra sprinkle of magic to your evenings. But, time is running out; Enlightenment will be finishing its run in the city on April 9, so there’s only a few weeks left to visit.
What exactly is Enlightenment in Glasgow?
Enlightenment is an immersive Vivaldi light show that uses high-definition, 360-degree projections and the iconic composer’s transporting melodies to bring the four seasons to life. It has already wowed the crowds in Liverpool, Lyon and Zurich and now Glasgow has fallen under its hypnotic spell.
This is a relaxing escape from the hectic humdrum of everyday life. You are cocooned in breathtaking visuals that have been perfectly mapped out to illuminate the ornate gilded detailing, stained glass windows and panelled walls of the historic neoclassical venue. Not only that, but you can prepare to be swept away on a wave of happy, sonorous swells and thunderous, climatic crescendos as Vivaldi’s moving violin concerto fills the room.
Enlightenment is a wondrous fusion of art, technology and spirituality that both soothes and stuns. It can be a sanctuary after a busy day at work, a romantic date night, a chance to experience a classic composition in a new way or an excuse to see one of Glasgow’s historic monuments in an entirely new, colourful, light. Make sure to add a luminescent splash of colour to your evenings and grab your tickets today.
