Eindhoven light festival GLOW officially begins

The GLOW light festival has officially commenced in Eindhoven, Netherlands, featuring a drone show titled ‘The Breathing Collective’ at the Philips Stadion. This year’s festival follows the theme ‘Connect’, aiming to foster connection through various light installations.

In Eindhoven, visitors can explore a five-kilometer walking route featuring approximately thirty light artworks. Notable installations include ‘The Bubble Bath’ by artist Koen Steger at Lodewijk Napoleonplein, consisting of 180 illuminated spheres, and ‘NOVA’ by student team IGNITE. ‘NOVA’ is a 17-meter-long light screen that translates the body heat of visitors into moving light patterns to encourage social interaction.

The festival also extends to surrounding areas, including Helmond, Oirschot, Best, Veldhoven, and Lieshout. GLOW is scheduled to run from Saturday, November 7, through Saturday, November 14.
