Enchanted Forest Stop the Clock 2026 In pictures: 13 pictures of this year's Enchanted Forest in Pitlochry

The Enchanted Forest has opened its landmark 25th anniversary show, Stop the Clock: The 25th Hour, in the spectacular surroundings of Faskally Wood, Pitlochry.

Marking 25 years since The Enchanted Forest first illuminated the Perthshire night, this year’s show invites audiences to leave the everyday behind and step into a playful, dreamlike world where time no longer behaves quite as it should.

The show is based on the playful premise that once every 25 years, the clocks align and a hidden extra hour appears. In Stop the Clock: The 25th Hour, minutes drift, clocks misbehave and the ordinary rules of reality begin to unravel as Faskally Wood is transformed through an immersive light show with a specially commissioned music and sound backdrop.

Visitors can expect Faskally Wood to be transformed with a series of spectacular new installations, from a larger-than-life talking clock and giant neon cogs turning amongst the trees, to illuminated clouds overhead and a flamboyant flock of flamingos bringing an unexpected burst of colour to the forest.

Here we take a look around this year’s 25th Enchanted Forest.
