After nearly four weeks illuminating the banks of the River Foyle, the out-of-this-world trail is about to move to its new home at Belfast's Divis and the Black Mountain. To wish it well on its onward journey, there will be two space-jam-packed days of fun in St Columb's Park Walled Garden. 

Check out the list of events your whole family can enjoy. Expect music, dance, film and workshops all happening over an epic weekend.
