Created by renowned British-Australian artist Bruce Munro, the installation features 50,000 solar-powered lights spread across an area the size of seven football fields.

Designed to symbolise the desert blooming after rain, the display offers a mesmerising spectrum of ochre, violet, blue and white lights that “breathe” and sway, captivating visitors since its launch in 2016.

“Creating the Field of Light at Uluru was a dream come true and it’s a personal joy to see that it still shines bright in the landscape that inspired it,” says Munro.

The art installation’s recent refurbishment involved replacing its luminous and fibre optic elements, ensuring the artwork – which has wowed more than 730,000 visitors – continues to inspire.

It is Munro’s longest-standing work and his first solar-powered installation, with 36 portable solar panels powering 144 projectors through more than 380km of optical fibre.

The popular “A Night at Field of Light” experience has also been upgraded. Guests can now enjoy enhanced stargazing with telescopes, a refreshed menu featuring dishes such as pineapple and lemon myrtle gazpacho, and new table lighting and centrepieces.

Matt Cameron-Smith, CEO of Voyages Indigenous Tourism Australia, emphasises the importance of the attraction.

“Field of Light has been an Uluṟu must-do for almost a decade now, and we’re delighted to see it revitalised and extended so guests can continue to be wowed by its special ethereal magic.”
