Events in Bournemouth
Candle Light Nights
The Candle Light Nights takes place in July -August. In 1896, Princess Eugenie of France visited Bournemouth. Her route through the Bournemouth gardens was lit by candles, and thus the tradition for the flowers by candlelight began. Now visitors to the event light thousands of candles in coloured jars to create a breathtaking and romantic spectacle. The event takes place throughout the summer at the Lower Gardens.
