Dazzling walkabout performances - Gravesham Light Festival

30th January - 31st January 2026

Throughout the festival, the streets of Gravesham will come alive with a vibrant programme of walkabout performances, inviting audiences to encounter light, movement and surprise at every turn.

From dazzling LED hula hoopers and jugglers, to fire performers and elegant giant swans, these roaming artists weave through public spaces, creating moments of wonder, play and shared delight. Appearing unexpectedly and interacting with their surroundings, the performers transform familiar streets into lively, glowing stages.

Designed to be enjoyed by all ages, the walkabout performances encourage visitors to pause, follow, and explore — making the festival a dynamic, welcoming experience for families, friends and communities coming together.

Whether discovered up close or glimpsed from afar, these performances add energy, warmth and imagination to the winter nights, ensuring there is always something magical just around the corner.
