On Saturday 27 January 2018, Thornton Heath hosted a magical one off festival of light and performances which was visited by over 5,000 people in just five hours.
The event, which was the centre of Croydon Council’s 2019 bid to become the Borough of Culture, saw Trumble Gardens transformed into an illuminated wonderland by Artichoke, the producers of Lumière London with 5,300 people turning out to experience the occasion.
