Winter lights experience at the National Stud & Garden  

THIS winter, The Irish National Stud & Gardens in Kildare welcomes all to its first ever seasonal light show.

From 15 November, Land of Light will light up the National Stud with spectacular displays, and breathtaking installations that promise an unforgettable experience for every generation.

St Fiachra’s Gardens will be transformed into a glowing wonderland this winter as Land of Light brings spectacular illuminations, cutting edge lasers, and breathtaking installations to one of Ireland’s most iconic landscapes.

Land of Light is the magical after dark trail that celebrates the beauty, heritage, and spirit of the Irish National Stud & Gardens through light, colour, and imagination.

Land of Light at The Irish National Stud & Gardens opens on Sunday 15 November and runs every weekend until 22 December. The 1.4 kilometre illuminated trail concludes with a fun fair, and is the perfect setting for family evenings, date nights, group outings or solo adventures this winter.

In keeping with its commitment to accessibility and inclusion, The Irish National Stud & Gardens will host a dedicated sensory evening on Friday, 27 November. This specially designed experience features reduced noise, music, and strobe lighting, with trained, understanding staff on hand to support visitors who may benefit from this sensory friendly evening.

Amanda Kelly, Sales and Marketing Manager at The Irish National Stud & Gardens, said: “Land of Light is unlike anything we’ve ever hosted here at The Irish National Stud & Gardens. It brings a whole new kind of magic to our visitors this winter. We’re proud to offer an experience that is beautiful, inclusive, and memorable for all ages. It’s a spectacular way to brighten the winter season.”
