Enchanted Forest announces 2025 show theme
The immersive experience will take visitors on a journey through the forest brought to life by light, music, and storytelling. Luminara is billed as "a timely reminder that nature and innovation can thrive in unison when we reconnect with the world around us, especially by stepping outside and immersing ourselves in places that inspire and restore". READ MORE: The creative team for the sound and light show, which draws over 85,000 visitors each year, have spent several months developing what they say will be a "significant technological showstopper". For the first time in the event's history, the whole audience will become part of a unifying immersive experience that will connect them, no matter where they are on the light trail. Commenting on the technological plan, Creative Director Karen Falconer said: 'This is by far the most technologically complex and wide-ranging immersive experience we have ever tried to create. It will bring together all installations throughout the site, fused together with sound and light, to create a moment in time that is shared by all. "In the natural setting of a forest the size of Faskally Wood, this is no small feat, but we're up for the challenge of showing how nature and technology can combine to create wonder and amazement. Our sound and lighting teams are extremely excited about bringing this moment to life in what will be a first for any show of this kind in Scotland.' Enchanted Forest (Image: Faskally Woods) Nela Popovic, CEO of The Enchanted Forest Community Trust, said: 'We're incredibly excited to launch this year's show and our creative team have been working extremely hard to create a show that is both unique and ground-breaking. Luminara is already promising to be a visually stunning and thought-provoking experience that visitors of all ages will be able to connect with. 'We are, once again, pushing the boundaries of technological capability in a way that will celebrate the beauty of Faskally Wood. We are shining a light on the powerful idea that nature and technology can exist side by side through a living network that connects trees, plants and energy in the same way that data flows through the internet. "Luminara reminds us that technology does not replace nature; no matter how far we stride into the future, nature is never left behind. We look forward to welcoming visitors to another unforgettable autumn.' Tickets for the 2025 show will go on sale at 10am on Friday, June 20, the eve of the Summer Solstice. To book, visit:

The new whimsical afternoon tea inspired by one of Shakespeare's best-known plays
A new afternoon tea has arrived in London inspired by Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, with whimsical charm and themed cocktails. Created by the geniuses behind The Secret Garden Afternoon Tea, Taj 51 has created their latest literary-themed afternoon tea inspired by this over 400-year-old play, with romance, confusion and magic. Launching on April 23, the tea features five 'acts', beginning with a potion inspired by the Elixir of Enchantment love potion slipped to the sleeping lovers by Puck, then moving onto savouries and the sweets for acts two and three.
