Year 1 Photo Gallery
Year 1 of Lights of Leamington Spotlight Festival and Switched On Stories has been amazing. We loved seeing the smiles, and moments of wow and joy, as people of all ages enjoyed the lights, exhibition and supporting events. We also loved seeing the spontaneous creativity that appeared online, including the creative photos, films, poetry and more.
Scroll down to enjoy a showcase of images shared with us. There are also links to our YouTube channels, which we encourage you to explore. The Switched on Stories film is wonderful, or you may enjoy watching the whole ‘By the Lake’ light show.
We know there are more out there, so if you would like to share any, the details are at the bottom of this page. We are also grateful for the support of Nat from Gallery Photiq, who helped us curate our selection.

Our Impact …
Over 17 days, 6700 people attended the ‘Switched on Stories’ exhibition in All Saints Church (8-23 Feb), and over 5 days, a whopping 39,000 people visited Jephson Gardens for ‘Spotlight Festival’ (19-23 Feb). We hosted two sold-out Candlelight Concerts and two nights of Silent Disco that engaged 1400 people, and enjoyed meeting over 700 children and 280 adults at our free half-term workshops. Many others enjoyed the town centre trails, workshops and murals.
We have prepared two presentations summarising what was delivered and our key highlights.
- Lights of Leamington – ‘Switched On Stories’ Summary presentation
- Lights of Leamington – SPOTLIGHT Summary presentation
They have been designed to flick through. Thank you to everyone who supported us in every way, and to all our visitors whose delight continues to inspire us!

Year 1 Photo Gallery
Year 1 of Lights of Leamington Spotlight Festival 2025 and Switched On Stories has been amazing. We saw so many phones and cameras capturing the magic and we loved seeing what was posted online, including the creative films that were made.
As above, the team would like to showcase some of your best images. That might be the lights, cubes, LOVE letters, bandstand, silent disco and candlelight concert. We are particularly looking for moments of wow, joy and that human touch. The gallery will be here on our website, and depending on what we see there may be more.
Thank you from the Lights of Leamington team.
