Events in Cornwall
Some of the best events taking place locally around Cornwall this year!

January
Every weekend throughout January – The Lost Garden of Heligan: Submergence. Set within our historic reserve yard, Submergence blurs the boundaries between the virtual and the physical. This immersive installation from Squidsoup transforms thousands of suspended lights into a living environment, where each tiny sphere – or voxel – creates movement and emotion through shifting patterns of light. Formed from 256 strands, each with 21 LEDs, Submergence comprises 5,376 individually addressable points of light, creating a luminous, three-dimensional canvas. Across a 12-minute sequence, the work moves through distinct phases of curiosity, tension and release.
