And yet, this edition is undoubtedly the most beautiful of Lanterna Magica. The opinions are unanimous. Against last year’s Autumn Symphony, Winter Lights, the theme chosen this year, revolves around the magic of Christmas. And she takes it straight away!
As soon as you arrive, you will cross an avenue of light garlands immersing you directly in the theme, before discovering a spectacle, always bright, of fairies leading you to the magnificent Château de la Hulpe. In addition to the light shows, much more breathtaking than previous editions, this Lanterna Magica 2024 stands out from the others in particular by the show performed on the facades of the castle.
Enough to make the eyes of the whole family shine before extending the magic towards the avenue of luminous flowers, an intermediate stage between the elves and other Christmas characters who complete the route guided by light shows which will let you imagine deer crossing the forest.
Cuts in Lasne, the paradise of meat grilled over a wood fire: “good meat begins with the meadows, not with the accompaniments”
All over a period of an hour and a half on average depending on the rhythm of your steps of course. With the exception of other walkers, you won’t come across anyone this time, like the fairies present last year. And it’s not any worse. This gives a more natural side to the night walk. At the end of it, you will be able this season to taste the pleasures of ice, an ice rink having been installed near the exit for the great joy of the little ones.
For foodies on the other hand (walking in the cold makes you tired) nothing really new. Pasta cones, tartiflettes or hot dogs, the choice is quite limited. But the youngest will tell you that the wide range of sweets, pancakes and waffles will be enough to end the family activity in style. You also have the “Dinner at the castle” option offered this year. But that’s another budget… A culinary experience that is nonetheless magical, too, the organizers promise.
