When night falls, some cities don’t go dark — they light up.
Explore the corners of Europe where light becomes art, dance and gathering through its Festivals of Light.
Beyond its practical function, light has been rediscovered as an expressive medium with its own language: capable of shaping urban spaces, activating landscapes, transforming architecture, and creating emotional connections with the viewer.
For this reason, at Arkoslight we want to share some of the exhibitions you can find across Europe to experience light in a truly sensory way.
Welcome to a brief, brilliant journey full of sparks.
