FREE LIT festival in Werribee
/Oohhh we LOVE this festival!!! Wyndham City’s award-winning free light festival, LIT, is back for 2026 and set to light up Werribee once again from 24 April – 3 May.
As the sun goes down, Wyndham Park transforms into a glowing, dreamlike playground filled with mesmerising light installations, projections and interactive experiences the whole family will love.
This year, LIT starts a little earlier with new hours from 6pm – 10pm nightly, making it even easier for families to head along. Hooray!
Mamma says pop this straight on your Autumn to-do list - it is one of the most magical nights out in the West.Make a night of it and grab dinner in Werribee City Centre before or after your visit, just a short stroll from the park.
There is plenty to explore, wander and discover, with something lighting up every corner f Wyndham Park.
