"If you’re like us, one of your big-ticket bucket list items is getting to see the Northern Lights in real life.
The ethereal majesty of the Aurora Borealis has enchanted millions of people for centuries, but for all of us in Sydney and Australia, the thought of seeing them dancing above us has been nothing more than the stuff of fantasy – as well as one seriously hefty plane ticket.
That is, until now."
‘Borealis’ is an immersive outdoor light-show experience coming to Bowral - and we're stoked!
