Bay of Lights
On 28th November 2026 to 3rd January 2027 Torquay
The Bay of Lights is a fantastic FREE winter event that lights up the towns of Torquay, Paignton and Brixham across December and into early January each year. Many attractions and towns take part in 'lighting up the Bay' to create a winter wonderland on the English Riviera.
This year's Bay of Lights 1.5mile accessible Illumination Trail will have large light installations, offering stunning digital light shows, fireworks at the harbourside, Christmas music, interactive fun and memory making photographic opportunities. This event gets bigger each year and has fast become one of the major Christmas events in the South West.
Reviews
- Delightful - The staff were all very friendly and the captain kept us entertained with his 'dad jokes' throughout. Recommend 100% for all ages. Great trip. Thank you.
- Fantastic trip - Booked this trip beforehand due to current circumstances. Good pricing, beautiful scenery on the journey, easy to get off & get the ferry straight over. Cruise down the river was also lovely.
- So organised - So well organised. All had seat reservations and the coaches were extremely clean. The river cruise did not disappoint and without doubt one of the best commentaries I have ever heard. Without exception everyone enjoyed the day out, and thought it was the highlight of our holiday. A credit to all.
