Gloucester Park Bandstand Illuminated

Gloucester Park Bandstand will be illuminated this month in conjunction with a Gloucester Park Soup event!

Commissioned by Bright Nights and created by Artists Helena Doyle and Jonathan Katona, Gloucester Park Bandstand will be illuminated on Wednesday 25^th November 2026. The installation will up-light the structure, complementing its geometry and aims to make the bandstand a more welcoming space during the winter months.

The switch on will happen in conjunction with a wider event, Gloucester Soup.

Gloucester Soup brings people together to share ideas, build connections and decide how local funding should be spent. For this event, four selected applicants will each have four minutes to pitch their idea for making Gloucester Park a more welcoming space, particularly for women.

You'll hear all four pitches before voting for the idea you'd most like to support. The idea with the most votes will receive the funding to make it happen in 2027.…
