Colours of Cluny Organisers Nod to Enchanted Forest Success

Organisers of Colours of Cluny, a spectacular light and sound show, planned for this November have expressed their excitement at the forthcoming event in the wake of The Enchanted Forest’s launch of its 15^th anniversary event earlier this week.

Commenting on the imagery of this year’s popular sound and light show which takes place at Faskally Wood near Pitlochry, Graham Murdoch, Chairman of Forres Features Community Interest Company said:

“The Enchanted Forest team have excelled themselves this year and the images have us very excited for what they have planned for Colours of Cluny in November. It really is an exceptional and dazzling display of colour and we can’t wait to see what Kate Bonney and her team will be doing in Grant Park and Nelson’s Tower just a few short weeks from now.

“The response since announcing Colours of Cluny has been very positive with tickets selling steadily so we’re urging people to book early. We’re looking forward to putting on an event that will engage the local community but also drive visitor numbers to the area. This region of Scotland has always been popular for people looking to see the Northern Lights – but, unlike our spectacular natural lights which choose their own times to reveal themselves, this Northern light show is guaranteed.”

The interactive family show is being developed by the same creative team who are behind the multi-award winning Pitlochry sound and light show, The Enchanted Forest, and its Creative Director. Kate Bonney, is well acquainted with the landscape having grown up in Forres.

Kate commented:

“I went to school in Forres and the area has provided me with much inspiration over the years. I’m truly delighted that we’re developing a show that is set to showcase the landscape of Cluny Hill and Forres in a new and exciting way and is definitely something not to be missed.”

Set to enhance the natural landscape in a dramatic and mesmerising mixture of sound and light, bringing awe to children and igniting a playful sense in adults, Colours of Cluny follows a route that begins close to the town centre with an illuminated walk through Grant Park, up Cluny Hill, before culminating in a show-stopping finale at the historic Nelson’s Tower.

The event, which is the first of its kind in Morayshire, will light up northern skies this November and organisers, Forres Features Community Interest Company, are expecting the vibrant show to attract thousands of visitors to the area.

The show will run on Wednesdays to Sundays from 9^th – 20^th November and tickets are available from their website at www.coloursofcluny.com.
