The event started at the Milton Keynes theme park, but has since spread to all three locations – Milton Keynes, Warrington and Rotherham – from mid-October to early March.

It’s the first time the visitors can see the light trail at Gulliver’s Valley Resort, which sits between Rotherham and Sheffield .

Each year, the event has a different theme, with numerous ‘dreamworlds’ featuring various characters such as mythical creatures and classical literature icons set to music, along a mile-long path.

Visitors can expect to see glowing dinosaurs, giant light sculptures and “magical portals into dreamworlds”.

There will be dog-friendly nights, free parking and food available at each park.

Last year, the Milton Keynes trail boasted more than 7,000 lanterns and over 63,000 LED lights.

The usual ticket price costs from £21 per person, but for a limited time tickets cost from just £10 per person for both adults and children – – book her e.

For an additional £4.50, visitors can also opt for a marshmallow toasting kit to enjoy a warm treat whilst exploring the trail.

Visitors can also get tickets that include park entry as well as the light trail, from £39 per person.
