What’s in it for you?

You can look forward to;

• Walking, jogging, or running a 5K route, enjoying a series of spectacular light and colour features all the way. The event is completely accessible and suitable for all abilities. Decide your own pace too! You can run at the speed of light, or take your time and snap a few pictures as you go!

• Reconnect with the Forth Road Bridge, as it celebrates it’s 60th birthday. Many of us remember crossing it in a car or on the pedestrian footpaths. However, the bridge will be completely closed to traffic for the evening, so this is a great opportunity to tread those carriageways on foot.

• Transport to and from the Forth Road Bridge from the Supernova travel hub, where your experience will begin.

• Before you reach that start line, we’ll get you ready for it by participating in a fun Supernova warm-up full of easy moves and stretches.

• You will have a special LED Supernova head torch to help you light up the night which you can take home!

• After finishing your experience, you will receive your exclusive medal and finishers pack as a memento of your evening!
