This day-long event will bring together more than 250 local volunteers and thousands of audience members, and connect vital public spaces and the people who live in them to imagine an alternative vision of the city.The route will tumble across city streets and sidewalks, public spaces, inside homes and businesses, and through local landmarks while activating massive domino sculptures along the way. It will feature 15 points of interest and five key spectacle moments, that will encourage visitors to explore and cheer on the entire route.Station House Opera, Dominoes Norfolk & Norwich Festival 2022.
