Festival Highlights
Light Museum
ILLUMINATE brings together local and regional artists whose works highlight light, technology, and art. Take your time to explore the whimsical creations from mobile art cars, roving performers and installations sprinkled throughout Library Square and 200 East.
Drone Show
Don’t miss ILLUMINATE’s Drone Light Show! See illuminated, synchronized and choreographed drones fly high above the festival; 400 feet in altitude to be precise. Drone Light Shows blend art and tech with a huge “wow factor” without air and noise pollution. ILLUMINATE is bringing this show to Salt Lake City in partnership with Open Sky Productions. Prime viewing area is from the festival grounds on 200 East.
Time of Drone Show TBA.
Projection Mapping
With projection mapping, artists combine light, space, and technology to create magical scenes on seemingly ordinary spaces, like the Salt Lake City Public Library! Objects are not just projected onto a flat surface, they are designed to wrap around buildings and mold to their shape, pixel by pixel, turning common objects into interactive 3D displays. For ILLUMINATE, local artists have designed a projection show you can enjoy throughout the festival.
STEAM Lab
Experience ILLUMINATE’s take on S.T.E.A.M. programming (science, technology, engineering, ART and mathematics) in our S.T.E.A.M lab. Learn about the special place where the creative and technology sectors come together. This space is designed for attendees of all ages to engage in interactive activities built around light and technology.
Live Music and Performances
Enjoy a wide range of music and performances while wandering around the festival. From Taiko drums to DJs, there will be performances everyone will enjoy.
Performance schedule TBA.
Artist Night Market
Featuring local artists practicing a variety of mediums, this open air market shows off the skills and creativity of artists and makers. Shop for one-of-a-kind pieces for yourself or others while supporting artists.
