Crowdfunder launched for spectacular Baylight parade in Morecambe

Morecambe Sparkle CIC have launched a Spacehive Crowdfunder campaign for the Baylight 25 Community Parade night on February 22, 2025.

A spokesman for Morecambe Sparkle CIC said: “Baylight 24 was amazing! Well, the good news is we are working hard on Baylight 25. We're all set to illuminate Morecambe seafront with stunning light installations and our amazing community parade.

“Baylight is a fun, free, family-centred, light art trail and community parade set in beautiful Morecambe.

"It takes place over two nights in darkest February (Friday, February 21- Saturday, February 22) culminating in the fantastically popular parade night on the Saturday.

"This year the parade has an emphasis on celebrating our local artists and communities, so there'll be lots of opportunities to get hands on and be part of the event.

“Baylight 24 attracted 28,000 visitors into the town centre and massively boosted community morale and the local economy alike at a time of year when spirits are low and trading is hard going.

"Baylight 23 was a finalist in the Lancashire Red Rose Awards in the best tourism category, and Baylight 24 was brilliant, now with your help we can make Baylight 25 bigger and better!

“This year we see a change in our funding so we are even more appreciative of any donation you can make to help us realise the amazing event we all want to see.”
