Illuminate Raymond Terrace

Brightening up Raymond Terrace with a family friendly event at Riverside Park, King Street, and Hunter Street.

Illuminate will bring families, residents and new citizens together with a focus on inclusion, culture, diversity and belonging!

With a citizenship ceremony, and lantern making workshop, followed by a community parade, while fire flames lining the pathway along the iconic river will lead you through an array of attractions such as markets, live music, roving artists, silent disco, food trucks, public bar and hot chocolate zone. Make sure you don't miss the spectacular display of fireworks which will take place over the Hunter River later in the evening.

This event is made possible thanks to funding from the NSW Government.

Please note: In the event of inclement weather, fire twirling displays and/or fireworks may not proceed if there is a risk to staff and patron safety.
