- Is Whitby Abbey Illuminated for me?
The event is our colourful celebration of all things Gothic. The ruins will be lit up in an array of colours, performances of Dracula will take place and the photo opportunities will be on top. And make sure to look out for the witch hunters… Food and drinks will also be available.
Explore the soaring gothic ruins as they’re illuminated in a breathtaking display of colour and light. Afterwards, hear tales from Count Dracula and come face to face with a coven of witches roaming about the ruins. Meet a sinister witch-finder to learn about the devious tricks of his trade, and keep out the cold with some delicious hot food and drink.
There’s plenty for all ages to enjoy at Illuminated Whitby Abbey
