When was the last time you saw fireflies? In Bali, Roosegaarde spent three years nurturing their return. Once abundant across rice fields, their glow had nearly vanished. Through a collaboration with local Balinese and a dedicated breeding program in the private FiREFLY GARDEN, these luminous guardians have come back to life, shot under red light invisible to them.
Our new WATERLICHT arrives in Bilbao with waves of blue light, an immersive experience at Itsasmuseum in Spain highlighting the beauty of living with water and the reality of rising sea levels caused by climate change. Join us 18–20 September, 21:30–00:00. Free entrance.
SPARK reimagines fireworks for a new era — biodegradable lights drift silently across the night sky. No loud bangs. No frightened dogs. Only wonder. “My dog goes crazy during traditional fireworks,” says artist Daan Roosegaarde. “So I wondered: how can we celebrate differently? That was the beginning of SPARK."
SPARK illuminates the sky at the Breckenridge International Festival of Arts in Colorado, USA, from August 15 to 17, 2025, 21:30–23:30. This public U.S. premiere features thousands of biodegradable light sparks in a sustainable celebration of art and nature. Free with registration.
