FAQS

The Light We Leave Behind is a guided immersive experience that combines music, architecture, light, water, and moments of reflection across a series of interconnected environments. Guests journey through multiple immersive spaces before arriving at the final performance, with a lounge and bar area offering space to gather and connect before or after the performance.

The Light We Leave Behind is part live performance, part installation, and part guided experience. At its center is a live performance featuring original instrumental music composed specifically for the space by Emmit Fenn, built around piano and immersive sound. The performance takes place directly on the water, and guests will be seated on platforms that rest just above its surface, placing you fully inside the environment.

The experience lasts approximately 90 minutes and includes a live performance at its heart. Guests are encouraged to arrive 10–15 minutes early, as the experience is designed to unfold from the moment you enter.

No two performances are exactly alike. While the overall journey remains consistent, elements of the music, atmosphere, and experience may evolve from night to night, making each performance unique.

You will not. We have designed the space intentionally so you can be completely surrounded by water without getting wet.

We ask that phones remain put away for the duration of the experience. The Light We Leave Behind is designed as an opportunity to disconnect from distraction and fully engage with the present moment. To preserve the experience for everyone, our hosts may kindly ask guests using their phones to step outside briefly before returning.

Each performance is intentionally limited to approximately 90 guests. The experience was designed to be intimate, allowing everyone to move comfortably through the environments and fully engage with the music, architecture, and atmosphere of the space. Because of this limited capacity, performances may sell out in advance.

The experience is designed primarily for adults and older children who are able to remain quiet and attentive throughout the performance. Due to the immersive nature of the experience, we recommend that children under eight years old do not attend.

We are committed to making the experience accessible whenever possible. If you have specific accessibility needs, please contact info@thelightweleavebehind.com before attending and our team will be happy to assist :)

We encourage guests to dress as they would for a special evening out. While there is no formal dress code, we recommend comfortable footwear and advise against high heels, as the experience involves walking through multiple environments.
