Visit The Enchanted Forest 2024
No autumn family holiday to Scotland is complete without a visit to this multi-award winning attraction, which brings the already stunning Perthshire woodlands to life with a spectacular display of light, sound, and colour.
What is it?
Visitors to this year’s Enchanted Forest will be transported into an immersive outdoor experience which combines a kaleidoscope of vivid colours with inspirational original music. Accompanied along the way by Beira, Goddess of Winter, you’ll discover the mellow croak of the forest frogs, and the gentle whisper of butterfly wings, as you make your way towards the natural, spectacular crescendo, celebrating the harmony and power of nature at the heart of the ancient wood.
Attracting over 60,000 visitors each year, the wonderful Enchanted Forest is part performance, part family entertainment, creating a truly magical night guaranteed to capture the hearts and imaginations of kids and grownups alike.
Wander through the forest to a series of choreographed sound and light shows, a mesmerizing orchestral score, and experience a unique atmosphere in the incredible surroundings provided by the natural woodland habitat. There are captivating storytelling sessions for children, mouth-watering food outlets, and delicious hot drinks to keep you warm.
The event has swept the board at a number of prestigious award ceremonies over its 20+ year history including Best Cultural Event at the VisitScotland Regional Awards in 2018, Best Outdoor Festival at the Scottish Outdoor & Leisure Awards 2017, Best Cultural Event at the UK Event Awards 2016, Scottish Rural Award for Tourism & Hospitality in 2016, Scottish Thistle Award for Best event in 2015, the Event Management Grand Prix, and Best Cultural Event at the Scottish Event Awards.
