Chesterfield Glow Up event saw a range of family friendly activities, live music from local musicians, street entertainers, face painting, craft workshops and a night market.

The centrepiece of the event was a light show on the Market Hall which has been created by internationally renowned projection art company, Illuminos, as part of the Animate Chesterfield programme.

BTEC Art and Design Level 4 Foundation Diploma students from Chesterfield College played a key role in bringing the stunning visual experience to life by creating original artwork showcased as part of the large-scale projection.

The event also included fun fair rides including a 35m giant observation wheel, vintage helter skelter and carousel will be in New Square.

Chesterfield Glow Up, on 27 and 28 of March, marked the end of the regeneration works in the market place and has been part funded from the Mayor of the East Midlands and East Midlands Combined County Authority (EMCCA) from funding provided by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF).
