'Dreaming Trees' moved back to February

Monday, 13 October 2025 11:05

The Dreaming Trees illuminations in Howard Davis Park won't take place this year.

Organisers have instead announced the popular light show will be back during February half-term.

The free event, where trees in the St Helier park are lit in different colours, took place in February 2023 and 2024, drawing around 30,000 visitors.

In January 2025, organisers said it would move to October this year.

In a short statement today (13 October), they now say it will return in February 2026.

"The move back to its original dates comes with the chance to introduce a new and exciting element never seen in Jersey before, promising to
make the event more magical than ever.

“We’re thrilled to bring Dreaming Trees back to its February home. This change means we can unveil something completely new for island
families to enjoy, adding even more wonder to the experience.

"Full details will be announced later this year."
