Shooting For The Stars At Astra Lumina

Hey all!

Tonight, we're at Astra Lumina at Annekesta in Gatlinburg, Tennessee!

This immersive nighttime walk uses light, sound, and projection technologies to create a multi-sensory experience. The event sells out quickly, so we had to get tickets two days in advance. As soon as Astra Lumina opened its gates, we were mesmerized by the initial light displays. The entire theme centers on reaching for the stars, and they truly succeeded in delivering it! We witnessed everything from projections in the trees to orbs of light moving up and down around us as we walked the 1-mile path. The whole experience can take 45 to 90 minutes to fully appreciate! To show how amazing it was, check out our photo report below!

Welcome to Astra Lumina!

Now lets begin our walk!

Where ever you look, there is new light to look at

No words can describe it!

We'll admit, pictures or videos do not do this experience justice

We hope to return in the future with better photos

At the end, the stars fly back into the sky!

The whole experience takes 45-90 min

With that, that's a wrap!

Thanks for reading, we apologize on some of the photos and videos looking grainy, this is from all the light effects going on!

As always, Keep on Coast'N'
