Pictured at the launch of Glow, A Cork Christmas Celebration at Bishop Lucey Park in Cork City are Kevin and Helen Higgins and Diane Lilley from Douglas with their dog Lucy. The festival has something for everyone from a 30m Ferris Wheel with panoramic views over Cork City, to a vintage carousel, a range of food and crafts markets, and live entertainment. The highlight of the event is the transformation of Bishop Lucey Park into a magical Victorian themed life-size pop-up book of ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas’. The park has been decked out with seasonal decorations and lights showcasing stunning scenes and live characters from the story. Guests will be met by a host of colourful characters including Melody Patience (the Choir Mistress), Jimmy Sweeper (The Chimney Sweep), and Hugo & Hetty Gossip. The park, which is free to visit, opens from 4pm-8pm every Friday to Sunday for the duration of the festival, which runs until 21st December. A glowing Cork welcome awaits you. Presented by Cork City Council. See www.glowcork.com for more.
