Gloucester City Council and Gloucester Culture Trust will postpone the Bright Nights season of events due to take place in January and February until later in 2021.

Following consultation with the organisers and artists, the decision was made due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic and the latest national lockdown with ‘Stay at Home’ restrictions in place. All the projects that were scheduled to take place between now and the end of March have been postponed until the end of the year. 

The postponement means that a bigger and brighter series of Bright Night’s events can take place later this year. 

The council and the culture trust are currently working with partners on wellbeing packs for local residents with some of the packs themed around Bright Nights allowing people to engage with the project safely from home. The packs will include a range of boredom-busting activities to encourage creativity, physical activity and fun over the coming weeks.
