Design After Dark: The Square
Event type
Hopwood Clock Tower Illumination and Promenade Artworks
See Palmerston North’s iconic Hopwood Clock Tower illuminated in vibrant teal blue to celebrate Festival of Design Aotearoa.
Located in Te Marae o Hine – The Square, the tower becomes a glowing landmark after dark, highlighting how colour and light can transform familiar public spaces.
While you’re there, take a walk or scoot along the Promenade and discover artworks displayed on the panels along the way, with information about the artists and their creative practice.
It's an opportunity to experience the city's public art, architecture and design in a new light.
Free | All ages | Self-guided | After dark
