We Shine Portsmouth is back for 2026 - transforming the city into a dazzling gallery of illuminated art.
From Thursday 19 to Saturday 21 November, Portsmouth will be aglow with light installations by both local and international artists for three nights of free art and interactive experiences.
This year's event is set to feature an installation and lantern parade at St Mary's Church by Fratton Together, a light art performance at Victoria Park from the team behind the Look Up street art festival, interactive installations from international names at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, and after-dark magic at Cosham Park curated by Portsmouth Creates.
More details on all this is to follow - check the We Shine Portsmouth website to keep up with the latest.
