Denver's most colorful Summer event is back!
Bright Nights by Tianyu Arts & Culture returns to Denver's Four Mile Historic Park for eleven weeks of immersive and whimsical illuminated fun. With colorful lanterns, interactive installations, walk through light tunnels, live entertainment, food trucks, and photo opportunities galore, Bright Nights offers a world of fun for the whole family.
We recently visited Bright Nights, and I'm so excited to share it all with you here.
Let's take a look...
Every year, Bright Nights features a different theme, with all new lantern installations. This year's theme features farmhouse flora and fauna, with a life sized illuminated barn, farm animals and wildlife, farm machinery, plants, and farming scenes.
Following on with the mythical theme, one of my favorite displays features a structure made of a rainbow of butterflies, with a fairy creature as the center point.
Like always, interactive and hands on displays are a big feature of Bright Nights. You'll find plenty of interactive displays that will delight children and adult alike. Light up swings, an illuminated dance floor, flowers that puff out smoke rings, a mirrored house, a wind up dragon, pedal lights, lighted frames for photo opportunities, and so much more.
