PHILADELPHIA, PA (October 22, 2024) – With over 500,000 tickets sold across the world, Astra Lumina is set to make its Philadelphia debut as part of Moment Factory’s awe-inspiring Lumina Enchanted Night Walk series. The international multimedia production studio is once again teaming up with the leading live entertainment discovery platform, Fever, to present the unique and interactive journey at Abington Art Center. Part of a U.S. tour that has featured three seasons in Los Angeles and two in Seattle, along with an inaugural event in Dallas this year, Astra Lumina’s Philadelphia edition opens for night walks beginning November 21.
Through projections, lighting and music, visitors will encounter the illuminating wonder of the stars. Abington Art Center will be transformed into an immersive outdoor, celestial world that awakens the imagination, inviting stargazers of all ages on a nighttime journey through the forest. Inside the experience, guests are guided on an illuminated nature pathway, with photo opportunities, gift shop, and food and beverage options available for purchase.
"Since 2014, we've brought more than 20 Lumina Enchanted Night Walks to life in diverse outdoor settings. With Astra Lumina arriving in Philadelphia, it marks the fifth U.S. city to host this unique attraction, showcasing its universal appeal to audiences of all kinds,” said Jonathan St-Onge, Executive Director at Moment Factory Originals. “This journey is about fostering connections—between people, nature, and the stars—so we're excited to bring this enchanted experience to the Abington Art Center for a captivating new chapter.”
“Fever’s ongoing collaboration with Moment Factory speaks to our shared passion for delivering unforgettable, cutting-edge experiences,” said Marina Tara, Fever’s Head of Creative Studio and Sr. Director of Production (US & Canada). “Every year, our joint efforts set a new standard, and we’re excited to build on that success by bringing Astra Lumina to the city of Philadelphia. As a hub for arts, culture, and innovation, we know this city will embrace the magic of this immersive experience.”
Astra Lumina, created by Moment Factory, welcomes you to a stunning destination, a 27-acre campus that seamlessly combines natural beauty with artistic expression. Come nightfall, the beautifully landscaped grounds become a captivating canvas for a magical event: a visit from the stars. This stellar journey invites stargazers to set off across the center’s illuminated pathways to encounter the wonder of the stars and embrace their own human light. As the night unfolds, these luminous orbs regenerate, rise, and reunite in the night sky to shine brighter than ever before.
