Eindhoven – Glow 2015 – 10th Year Anniversary

My favourite time in Eindhoven has finally arrived… No it is not Christmas, but it’s a very close second.

Every year around the 8th of November, Eindhoven holds a spectacular light tour called Glow around the centre of town and this year it was their 10th anniversary.

This year there are 25 main exhibitions and Glow Next, full with 13 new young talented artists.

This is the map for the main Glow route. You can really get a sense of how big it was this year.

Some people felt that this year was not that great, but I only have last year to compare to.  This year there was no naked ladies running around and pressing themselves against sheets, so this year was the best one yet!

Unfortunately I didn’t take pictures of every exhibition, some where just too amazing that I forgot to take pictures.

I am really looking forward to see what Glow has in store for next year!
