Spectacular £5 Light Installation 90 Mins from Birmingham

A spectacular walk-through light installation is coming to a city just 90 minutes from Birmingham during the May half term. The Light Project's Luminarium Terceradix is a huge inflatable structure filled with winding pathways, twisty tunnels, huge glowing domes, translucent fabrics and constantly changing colours.

Described as 'like a circus tent at a rave', the event is suitable for all ages and costs just £5 for adults, £3 for children, with babes in arms going free. It takes place at Harwell Campus in Didcot, Oxford, from May 29 to 31, running from 11am to 5pm.

What to Expect Inside the Luminarium

A spokesman said: 'The Light Project's newest event is a Luminarium, a spectacular walk-through installation that fills visitors with light, colour and calm. Created and hand-crafted by the world-renowned Architects of Air, this monumental inflatable structure invites visitors to slow down and explore at their own pace.'

'Inside, winding pathways and soaring domes glow with radiant colour as daylight filters through the translucent fabric, creating an ever-changing, immersive experience. Luminarium is designed to be gentle, inclusive, and open to everyone. There's no right route and no rush – just space to wander, look, and enjoy being immersed in colour.'

'Whether you're visiting with family, friends, or taking a quiet moment for yourself, Luminarium offers a rare chance to experience art from the inside out. Suitable for all ages. A truly memorable experience for curious minds and calm seekers alike.'

Also Coming to Warwickshire

The installation is also coming to Compton Verney in Warwickshire from Wednesday August 26 to Monday August 31. Tickets cost £30 for adults and £9.95 for children when bought in advance.

How to Get There

The event is taking place next to DiSH, Curie Avenue, Harwell Campus, Didcot, OX11 0DF. It takes just over 90 minutes to get there via the M40 and the A34. Use the Ridgeway car park. You could make a weekend of it and stay overnight in Oxfordshire. The Old Post Office is a quirky, historic retreat set in a village of Chilton and surrounded by national landscape walking trails and open spaces. Or The Wash House in Sibford Ferris can be found via a quiet farm track, overlooking serene views of the owner's farmland, grazing sheep and far-reaching views which can be enjoyed with your morning coffee from the front patio. Inside, there's a cosy woodburning stove to enjoy in the evenings.
