Illuminate Light & Laser Spectacular

Illuminate Light & Laser Spectacular was a seasonal evening show at the Dreamworld theme park on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia.

History
On 2 March 2010, Dreamworld announced that they would be adding a light and laser show for the Easter school holidays. The show was included with daily admission, however, guests could purchase a separate Illuminate ticket just to attend the event. The first showing of Illuminate was from 2 April until 16 April 2010. Despite a poor trading period, Ardent Leisure CEO Greg Shaw stated that the launch of Illuminate was a success.

In early May 2010, it was reported that Dreamworld was evaluating the possibility to incorporate Illuminate into night dance parties. Rather than going ahead with dance parties, Dreamworld began to incorporate the show into the existing Screamworld night events.

In the June/July holidays of 2010 Illuminate returned alongside a "Winter Wonderland". In the evenings before the show, guests could play in up to 10000 kg of ice or slide down an ice slide.

Illuminate has since returned in 4 other school holiday periods (including the Summer Funomenon) and several Screamworld events.

Show
Illuminate Light & Laser Spectacular was created by Australian entertainment company Laservision. Laservision is the company responsible the world's largest light and sound display, A Symphony of Lights in Hong Kong, as well as the lasers inside the Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster at Warner Bros. Movie World on the Gold Coast.
