Great Promenade Show highlights

The Great Promenade Show features many incredible works that celebrate nature and human innovation. The High Tide Organ, one of the most famous sculptures, is a massive pipe organ that combines pipes on the seawall with pipes on the promenade. When high tide comes, the swell forces air through the pipes to make music.

Another notable sculpture is ‘The Swivelling Wind Shelters’, a sculpture made of stainless steel and wood that stands at 8 metres and moves with the wind, creating a permanent source of shelter from the elements. The ‘Glam Rocks’, a set of pebbles with constellations of fibre optic lights, is a must-see sculpture.
