Back to West Yorkshire and Divali (Diwali/Deepawali) weekend. Our adopted city let out all the stops and hosted the 'Illuminate Bradford' festival. We loved it so much that we went on all three nights (bus pass to the ready). Amazing!
 |
| Bradford gets a lot of negative press so it was great to see so many people having fun |
 |
| We've seen this kind of lightshow before (Biarritz, La Tranche and León), each different and all impressive |
Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCjYakErqoo&t=112s and imagine really quality sound that doesn't come through on the video
 |
| Maddie & Alfie loved playing the illumaphonium (Another YouTube link for those interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRfs1d2dgRc) |
 |
| Bradford's famous Alhambra theatre... |
 |
| ...and the City Park Mirror Pool in all their glory. |
 |
| On the last night there were giant puppets ('Illuminares')... |
 |
| ...and fascinating illuminated stilt-walkers. |
