Lights at Mawson is back for 2025, lighting up the Mawson Lakes main lake area with an immersive light trail, interactive light maze, magical fairy garden and for the first time, a spectacular on-lake flame show. This year’s event takes place over three unforgettable nights from 11-13 July, 5pm to 10pm.
Mawson Lakes Boulevard will be transformed into a family friendly hub with games, and live entertainment. Wander along the lakeside and explore a series of glowing, immersive light installations designed to delight visitors of all ages.
What’s On:
Sir Douglas Mawson Lake will be the centrepiece of the event, bursting with flame, light and pyrotechnics, performed three times each night.
In addition to the show-stopping flame display, attendees can enjoy:
- Immersive light trail with Nylon Zoo light-up inflatables
- Interactive light maze
- Magical fairy garden
- LED spinning workshops
- Silent disco
- Live acoustic music
With local cafes and restaurants open late each night, it’s easy to turn your visit into a full evening out.
Please note, the inflatable sculptures have been lovingly and skilfully handmade by artist Evelyn Roth. Please admire and enjoy, but do not touch the sculptures.

Mawson Lakes is easily accessible via public transport, with the Mawson Lakes train station just a short walk from the lake. Limited on-street parking is also available nearby. For more information on public transport, visit Adelaide Metro online.
