BOTTLE  ALLEY  LIGHTS

The lights in Bottle Alley were added in 2017 completely transforming the space into a destination to visit after dark. There are 1524 individually programmable LED lights along the walkway with light shows happening every evening throughout the year at 7:30pm and 9:30pm with an extended show, lasting 30 mins, on Friday evenings. At midnight the lights revert to white and turn off at sunrise.

The lighting scheme won ‘Outdoor Lighting Project of the Year’ at the Lux Awards in 2018.

ZEROH advised the council about their approach to replacing the previous all white lighting in the space in 2017. In November 2017 Hastings Borough Council commissioned ZEROH to produce a sound to light show for invited guests, that showed the new systems capabilities, a video of which is below.

MUSIC TO LIGHT SHOW
THURSDAY 28TH MARCH 2024

This event was a unique happening with a pre-recorded soundtrack featuring different styles of music animating the lights across the entire 500m length of Bottle Alley.
This was a free to attend event, open to all. Over 1200 people braved the 40mph winds along the seafront to attend the event with the weather adding to the drama of the atmosphere.
