Stellar: Bright Ideas at Smales Farm

Stellar: Bright Ideas at Smales Farm


An after-dark outing the whole family will enjoy, Stellar: Bright Ideas at Smales Farm brings a magical glow to Auckland’s North Shore this winter. Come along after sundown and wander the enchanting pathway through seven magnificent light installations, each celebrating the arrival of the Matariki (or Seven Sisters) constellation in the winter night sky.

The natural world is an adventure the whole family can experience at Smales Farm. Take the journey by foot as the stars look down into an optic wonderland. Or, if the fresh winter air sounds a little daunting, be wowed by the seven compelling contemporary light installations from the comfort of your vehicle along the drive-through route. Stay warm with the delicious food offerings and hot coffee on site, making for a real night-time treat for families and friends to share together.

2015 is UNESCO's International Year of Light, celebrating creative and intriguing ways of experiencing light in communities. Stellar: Bright Ideas is a chance to experience an amazing display of art in the beautiful mid-Winter setting of North Auckland.


The latest in an action-packed calendar of ongoing outdoor activity and events at Smales Farm, prepare to be inspired by the creative use of light at this dynamic and captivating community event.

Stellar: Bright Ideas at Smales Farm kicks off on Thursday 9 July, running every night until Sunday 12 July between the hours of 6pm and 11pm.
