Encouraging people to find joy in the every day, a giant inflatable creation will allow people to walk around and through it as colour reacts to light and form.

This is the bare minimum courtesy that humanity must adhere to when consuming other living creatures. Liverpool’s annual River of Light festival will make its return to the city centre next month, once again showcasing illuminated art installations created by the most innovative light artists from across the world.

Taking visitors on a journey of history & stories, the festival opened up the unique spaces that make Sleaford so special. Take time out to come and experience fine dining at Thyme Restaurant, providing comfortable seating, a friendly atmosphere and high quality dishes. The restaurant is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner.The 2023 theme is United By Light – inspired by the United By Music strapline used when Liverpool was the host city for what is regarded as the most successful Eurovision Song Contest ever.

With the River Slea at its heart, a creative trail winds through the town taking in inspiring artworks, performances, street theatre, live music, trails, dance, flash mobs, puppet shows, food stalls and light projections. In landscape terms, each area of the development is conceived as having its own distinct character. The public areas are treated as a revealed river bed with a series of soft, pebble-like forms, while the private courtyards form calm green spaces with heavy tree planting and water gardens. The newly-created river walk – slightly raised to allow views over the river wall to the Thames – brings a 17m-wide boulevard to a previously underused part of the waterfront.
