GLOW SWIM 2022
AWAKEN YOUR SENSES
AT GLOW SWIM 2022!
Our famous Glow Swim event brings together open water swimmers for an amazing sensory experience like no other! This uniquely popular Glow Swim challenge never fails to delight open water swimmers of all levels.
Swimming under the light of the full moon, enjoy a unique and exhilarating open water swimming experience at GLOW SWIM 2022. Join us for a truly surreal spectacle as you and your fellow swimmers light up the lake with a glowing firefly trail of multi-colour lights winding their way around our swim course.

Run to coincide with the full moon lunar cycle, we'll be lighting up our 750 metre swim course to light your way like beacons in the darkness. A spectacular event like no other, this unique, stimulating and visually surreal open water swim experience is one to remember and not to be missed!

Glow Swim is not a race - it is a relaxing, sensory night swim experience to feed the mind, body and soul so leave those stop watches at home and immerse yourself in the spectacle. Your entry includes full water safety cover, an exclusive Glow Swim-branded Zaini woollen beanie hat worth £25.00, post-swim live entertainment and, of course, a slice of delicious pizza.

POST-SWIM EXPERIENCE
After a post-swim change into warm clothing, join us on the quayside for a delicious slice of hot gourmet pizza and a cheeky drink from our unique Horsebox bar serving a range of soft and alcoholic drinks. Horsebox drinks and extra pizza slices available as an optional extra so bring some pocket money!

We'll then kick back and enjoy the smooth and enchating sound of live music from musician Sam Evans, set against the tranquil backdrop of the lake. We'll also be 'firing up' our fabulous 'Heatwave' fire pit to provide a warm and welcoming glow to proceedings - the perfect spot to enjoy a cosy drink as you relax, chat and enjoy the live music.

Entry to the Glow Swim is restricted to Vobster Quay swim members only and bookings are accepted on a first come first served basis so book early to avoid disappointment. This is one swim challenge you won't want to miss!

LOVE THE ENVIRONMENT? GO GREEN!
If you love the environment as much as we do, please join us in switching to a more eco-friendly glow light solution. We now offer a super-bright Swim Secure light which offers the perfect ECO-FRIENDLY ALTERNATIVE. This funky little safety light puts out a super-bright glow that can be seen from over 5 kilometres away and, with its integrated caribiner, can quickly and easily be attached to your swim float.

Chemical glow sticks will be available to purchase for £1.00 extra if you prefer not to purchase an eco-friendly alternative - but please think of the environment!
