Crewe festive lights show disrupted as bad weather takes out exhibits

By Gwyn Griffiths 2nd Dec 2021

ENGINEERS have been called in to repair damage to two of the main displays in Crewe's festive Lumen lights display.

The weekend's severe weather has hit Aqualux, a lighting installation made of 48 water containers sited in Lyceum Square, and the Moon Folk projectors in Memorial Square.

Both exhibits are switched off, while a third, Chorus, a tripod-based installation erected near the magistrates' courts, was ended a day early - it had been due to run for three nights until Sunday - because of the stormy weather.

Crewe Town Council worked with a team from Blackpool Illuminations to create the arts trail, which runs until Sunday, December 12.

The council has apologised for any inconvenience and said: "We are working with technical support to get them fixed asap ."
