EA Networks supports Glow in the Park for 2025

Mid Canterbury’s largest community event is back for another year, with EA Networks proud to contribute to the success of the event as a key sponsor.
Group Manager of Compliance and Development Ian Hyde said Ashburton District Council is thrilled that the partnership is continuing.
“The very first Glow in the Park was a celebration of 100 years of electricity in the district and EA Networks has been a part of the event every year since, so it’s exciting to have them on board again.”
EA Networks Chief Executive Onno Mulder said EA was excited to support Glow in the Park again.
“We’re passionate about contributing to our local community, so having the opportunity to bring people together for events like Glow in the Park really appeals to us.”
Visitors to Glow in the Park can expect an enhanced experience with the lighting displays encompassing a wider area of the domain, and a greater range of amusement rides. Alongside favourites from last year, many new light features will be making their first appearance in Ashburton.
Last year’s event drew around 40,000 visitors over three nights, and organisers estimate that almost half travelled from outside of the district.
“Glow is the perfect excuse for people to plan a long weekend getaway to our district and explore the many other attractions and experiences that Mid Canterbury has to offer,” Mr Hyde said.
“Entry remains free thanks to our lineup of amazing supporters, and we look forward to announcing some of these partnerships and more of what people can expect to see at Glow in the near future.”
EA Networks Glow in the Park will be hosted in the Ashburton Domain on King’s Birthday weekend, 31 May – 2 June.
