Reviews of Lightopia festival at Heaton Park
"A fun event around the park. Some food and drink kiosks present, separate quite high parking fee to be close to the site, and the lights are spread across the park’s grounds lending for a good walk round, following the main paths. Various themed lights of sizes and colours, with some interactive elements. A worthwhile visit for younger children, and the layout has been well thought out. Plenty of staff for safety and has been a well attended event for me our three years of visiting"
"The festival in quite spaced out so although one or two of the displays are spectacular there are too many that are strung out over a long walk to give the good lighting effect. Plenty of food options available and a quite a few rides on location for both the youngsters and the braver teenagers. Toilets a bit poor as only a few pods on site and the ones we tried to use last night had no lighting so you couldn't see what you were doing properly."
"Had a really lovely evening at Lightopia tonight. A really lovely atmosphere and great light shows. If attending via taxi make sure they take you to the right entrance as we got dropped off by a gate which was locked."
"Late opening so had to stand in the cold for 45 minutes to get in. When we got in only 2/3 of the lights were working. Would recommend this if you like plastic tat and would like to see it at night rather than during the day. No response to email complaining about the late entry and fact that it was not all working. My advice would be to home, save your money and look at your Christmas tree with it's lights on, it is probably better than Lightopia."
