WONDER at HOTA
Grab a cardigan as WONDER Festival is beckoning you outdoors, and its hero event, Museum of the Moon, is well worth leaving the comforts of home. The spellbinding showcase will layer HOTA’s Outdoor Stage in a kaleidoscope of large-scale lunar imagery, moonlight and an ethereal soundtrack. Brought to life by internationally renowned artist, Luke Jerram, Museum of the Moon seamlessly merges state-of-the-art technology with innovative musical composition created by BAFTA and Ivor Novello award winning composer Dan Jones. Throughout the ten nights of WONDER, Museum of the Moon is free to experience and will grace the skies of HOTA’s Outdoor Stage.
Those looking to feast under the stars can do so on Friday October 18 and Saturday October 19 at Night Bites Under Lights, which will feature a mouth-watering array of food-truck fare and a pop-up bar. Under the breathtaking display of Museum of the Moon, market-goers can expect to nosh to a soundtrack of groovy tunes provided by Lisa Hunt and CC The Cat. Those who want to level up the culinary adventures can indulge in a four-course culinary journey with paired wines curated by Palette’s executive chef Dayan Hartill-Law at the Lux De La Luna Dinner. Accompanying the flavour-packed feasts will be a bounty of entertainment, including Moonrise Sonata on October 25. The evening will feature solo, duo and trio performances from instrumental compositions, opera and musical theatre, all inspired by the night sky.
