Umbrella Lights | Glenelg | Until 15 Sep 2026

The Umbrella Lights installation returns to Glenelg’s Marina Pier in 2026.
Umbrella Lights are back for another season to delight those visiting The Bay. Encouraging visitors to Glenelg’s Marina Pier to indulge in a night of good food and beverages, the lights return after their introduction back in 2021.
In previous years, there were only seven umbrella-shaped light displays along the pier walkway in its first year, but that has now doubled to 14. Featuring cool white lighting for the Umbrella frame and dotted with glowing blue lights filling in as colour, individual umbrellas feature as part of a collective installation.
Backed by cloudless sunset with strong hues on a clear winter’s day, the ‘Umbrella Lights’ make for a perfect setting to enjoy Marina Pier in a quieter time of year. Families are encouraged to enjoy the free installation and continue to taste Marina Pier at any of the family-friendly establishments.
The installation is now active and runs nightly until 15 September 2026. Visitors are encouraged to share photos on social media with the hashtag #lightupmarinapier
