Swing Song is heading up to Lincoln!
Hop onto one of the six interactive swings and glide back and forth to craft your own musical masterpiece and mesmerising light show.
This interactive and fun installation uses sound and light to create a unique and playful experience. Each swing controls a different musical element from percussion, bassline and melody, and each movement contributes to the symphony alongside a dynamic light show.
Don’t just watch—be part of the show! Whether you’re swinging solo or harmonising with friends, Swing Song offers a fun and unforgettable experience for all ages. Come play, create, and light up the night!
