Winter Light Cathedral

Step inside Winter Light Cathedral – a dazzling, walk-through experience made from tens of thousands of tiny LED lights. Inspired by the sweeping arches of grand church windows, this luminous tunnel invites you in for a moment of warmth, wonder and a little bit of WOW.

From the outside, it shines like a beacon in Aotea Square. Inside, it’s something else entirely – a sparkling, cosy world where every step surrounds you in soft, golden light.

Whether you're out for a family night, date night, or just passing through the city, this is a joyful experience not to miss. Walk it once, snap a pic, tag us @aucklandlive, then go again (you’ll want to).

Free entry – just turn up and step in.
