Time Out says

Everyone’s favourite riverside culture hotspot Southbank Centre be aglow again with festive illuminations. Winter Light is a free, open-air exhibition featuring an electric smorgasbord of lightworks (which is what we’re calling these now) from super-talented artists from around the world. All of them make mind-bending use of light, colour and even boundary-pushing film to deal with issues and topics surrounding nature, technology, urban life and spirituality.

Works featured include: Dichroic Sphere (a light sculpture powered by a single energy-efficient bulb); Sphere (a gas-filled tube that rotates to produce a giant glowing orb illusion) and Cosmic Bloom (an installation of 1,300 digital artworks projected onto the Royal Festival Hall - ooh).

Why not combine your visit with a trip to Southbank Centre’s Winter Market? Or you can find out all about London’s other massive festive light shows
