The inflatable sculpture features winding passages of winding domes and is inspired by the repetitious forms found in the bazaars of the east. As visitors enter the structure they are immersed in radiant light shining through the various coloured plastic walls and domes creating an atmosphere that both enchants and delights with its otherworldly appearance. The architects of air have been creating Luminarium since 1992 and they have seen over 3 million visitors in 41 countries worldwide. The Luminarium are cut and glued together in their workshop by hand in Nottingham England.

Three new pieces where specially commissioned for the festival and where shown in Leicester for the first time. The installations created a stunning night-time spectacle in Leicester city centre. Each of the pieces encouraged interaction by the public transforming the night-time ambience in Leicester city centre during the four days of the festival. Light Up Leicester is presented by Leicester City Council, BID Leicester and ArtReach. It has been made possible by the support of Arts Council England.
