Festivals

The Seventh International Festival of Light and Media Art Light Nights will take place at the Gatchina Museum-Reserve (Saint Petersburg, Russia) on the final weekend of summer 2025. 

Light Nights is an immersive nighttime experience that transforms the unique palace park into an open-air exhibition of light and media art. The festival`s mission is to introduce contemporary art to a wide audience through deep emotional and intellectual experiences while also serving as a hub for the development of light and digital art. It provides a platform for debuts, a space for experimentation, and a meeting point for both emerging and established artists.
