Tips

In case of severe weather, the event may be cancelled or rescheduled, so check the organizer's official announcement on the day. The riverbank becomes dark underfoot, so having a small light is reassuring. After it ends, surrounding roads get crowded, so allow plenty of time when moving.

Best time to visit

Time it to the 19:00 start. Secure a good spot before it begins
