Auckland Palace’s dazzling light trail will illuminate the skies of Bishop Auckland this Christmas.

AGLOW promises to be one of the most spectacular Christmas light trails in the North East. With incredible illuminations and some of the largest light installations in the country, AGLOW is a must-see experience for all the family.

Step into a winter wonderland as Auckland Palace’s dazzling light trail once again transforms the skies above Bishop Auckland – and this year promises to be bigger, brighter, and more magical than ever before.

To keep you warm and cosy, you’ll find a delicious array of independent food stalls, serving everything from mulled wine and hot chocolate to tempting seasonal treats.

And for younger visitors, the magic continues as Santa Claus himself will be making a special stop at AGLOW, along with his team of merry elves! Be sure to visit Santa’s workshop, where little ones can enjoy a musical show – yes, Santa sings and dances too!
