Neon Gallopers

During the daytime, the gallopers parade around showing off their painted splendour, dressed by skilled artists. As night falls, you are welcomed into their magical world, lighting the way as you wander through woodlands, or over the crest of a hill, to find them prancing about. Each horse canters to its own beat as a delicate sound and light show fills the area with colour and texture further immersing you in this magical fairground utopia. From America to Europe, carousels were once a staple at the fair. This neon twist will have the audience riding away with a great sense of nostalgia and discovery-the gallopers appeal to the whole family.
