Not far from the Peak District National Park and in the heart of Derbyshire, is an idyllic village where you'll find the 'UK's best pub', which feels like stepping back in time

Just to confirm that 3 nights of our 2026 season, which starts in 9 days' time, are already *S O L D - O U T*!

The nights at capacity are:
👉Saturday 12th September
👉Saturday 3rd October
👉Saturday 10th October

A heads up that both Saturdays 17th and 24th October are now around *90%* full. Our best advice is to book now to avoid disappointment at www.derbyshiredales.gov.uk/illuminations

We open on Saturday 12th September with our s o l d - o u t Preview Night. The Illuminations then run every weekend from the following Saturday, 19th September, though to Sunday 1st November (plus Friday 30th October), with fireworks finales every October Saturday and the final night 🎆

Don't forget that your Illuminations booking gets you a same-day discount at the wonderful The Heights of Abraham here in beautiful Matlock Bath. Further info on your Illuminations e-ticket 👍
