The enormously popular Hegra After Dark is back for the third year running, offering a bigger, bolder flavour of the ancient world.

Following a magical expedition through the landscape in a horse-drawn carriage, you will be welcomed into a ‘theatre of life’ set amongst some of Hegra’s most spectacular tombs for an inspired reimagining of history, brimming with the sights, sounds, smells and tastes echoing the era of the Nabataeans.
