The event village will be open from 4:45pm for registration, purchasing glow in the dark merchandise, food and drink vendors, glow/glitter face paint, and more!

If you are participating in the 10k route, this sets off at 6pm and heads all the way to Hadleigh Castle. For the 5k route, this will be setting off at 6:30pm, and leads you through Little Havens Woodland.

Once you return from your walk, the silent disco will be open for those who have upgraded their entry for a minimal cost of £3 per person. This added extra will be available to purchase on the night of the event too. The silent disco offers three channels to choose from, one being a dedicated request channel, for those of you wishing to dedicate a song in memory of a loved one.

Walk in memory of a loved one, or simply to make a difference – together, we can illuminate Hadleigh for Havens Hospices.

Your ticket price covers the cost of putting on the event, so everything you raise in sponsorship will help Havens Hospices continue to provide our specialist care to families across Essex.

Please note the event is family friendly and open to all ages, however the routes do take you through woodland and across uneven paths so is not buggy/wheelchair friendly, unless you are prepared for all terrains and up for a challenge!
