Engineered with industrial-strength rubber cabling and true IP65 weatherproofing, our modular system allows you to build a sophisticated lighting canopy tailored to the exact dimensions of your space.

Because every space is unique, our system is built in 8-metre modular strands. Select your required total length from the dropdown menu to receive a seamless, linkable setup tailored to your project's scale.
- Precise Fit: From a small 8m balcony to a massive 200m venue perimeter, choose the exact increment that fits your layout.

Step 2: Find Your Glow (Bulb Selection Guide)
All LiquidLEDs Pro strings are compatible with E27 globes. Use our expert comparison guide to choose the perfect brightness and atmosphere for your specific space:
| The Bulb Style | Brightness | Regular Person Equivalent | Atmosphere |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1W / 1.5W Shatterproof | 110lm - 125lm | 15W Mood Light | Twinkling / Safe |
| 4W Vintage G45/A60 | 200lm - 320lm | 25W Standard | Intimate Dining |

Festoon String Lights FAQs
What comes included with the Festoon String Light?
What comes included with the Festoon String Light?
The Festoon String Light package contains everything required for basic installation and includes free 11W incandescent S14 bulbs with E27 Edison Screw bases. The string light features waterproof silicon rubber lamp holders spaced 80cm apart and has waterproof universal joints at both ends for connecting multiple strings. The string also includes a 240V Australian Standard 2-pin plug and can be used with selected LED light bulbs
What is the IP65 rating, and what does it mean for outdoor use?
What is the IP65 rating, and what does it mean for outdoor use?
The IP65 rating means these festoon lights are completely protected against dust ingress and against low-pressure water jets from any direction. This means they're fully weatherproof and can be safely used outdoors year-round, even during rain, snow, and other weather conditions. The waterproof silicon rubber lamp holders provide additional protection for the bulbs and electrical connections.
Can I connect multiple strings of these festoon lights?
Can I connect multiple strings of these festoon lights?
Yes, these festoon lights feature waterproof universal joints on both ends designed explicitly for connecting multiple strings. You can connect additional 20m or 10M strings to create 40m, 60m, or more lengths. The maximum recommended connection on a single power source is 1500W, as the total wattage should not exceed 1500W. Each connection maintains the IP65 waterproof rating when adequately secured.
How do I install these festoon lights?
How do I install these festoon lights?
Installing these festoon lights is straightforward:
- Plan your layout and measure the area where you'll install the lights
- Ensure you have access to a standard 240V power outlet
- If mounting on walls or structures, install hooks, nails, or other mounting hardware (not included) at regular intervals
- Carefully unbox the string lights and gently unwind them
- Hang the lights using the mounting hardware, ensuring the lamp holders face downward
- Connect the plug to a standard power outlet
- For permanent outdoor installations, consider using a weatherproof outlet cover
No special tools or electrical knowledge is required for basic installation.
How bright are these festoon lights?
How bright are these festoon lights?
These festoon lights provide ambient, atmospheric lighting rather than task lighting. The 11W incandescent bulbs create a warm, soft glow that's perfect for ambience in entertaining areas. The light output is designed to be gentle and inviting rather than bright and harsh. You can upgrade to LED bulbs or install multiple strings for brighter illumination.
Can these festoon lights be dimmed?
Can these festoon lights be dimmed?
Yes, these festoon lights are dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer. We recommend the Black Plug-In Dimmer (AUD 75.00) or the DimEzy™ Smart Plug-In Dimmer (AUD 69.00), both available separately. These plug-in dimmers allow you to adjust the brightness to create the perfect ambience for any occasion without requiring any electrical modifications. When purchasing accessories with the festoon lights, you'll automatically receive a 20% discount in your shopping cart.
Can I use LED bulbs instead of the included incandescent bulbs?
Can I use LED bulbs instead of the included incandescent bulbs?
Yes, these festoon lights are compatible with E27 (Edison Screw) LED bulbs. Upgrading to LED bulbs offers several advantages, including lower energy consumption, reduced heat output, longer lifespan, and sometimes brighter illumination. LED bulbs are available as an upgrade option at purchase or can be added later. When selecting LED bulbs, ensure they're rated for outdoor use if you plan to install them outdoors.
What happens if one bulb breaks or burns out?
What happens if one bulb breaks or burns out?
These festoon lights are designed with a parallel wiring circuit, meaning if one bulb breaks or burns out, the rest will continue to function normally. Simply replace the non-working bulb with a new E27 (Edison Screw) bulb rated at 25W or less. This design makes maintenance simple and ensures your lighting display isn't compromised by a single bulb failure.
What is the maximum wattage these festoon lights can handle?
What is the maximum wattage these festoon lights can handle?
Each lamp holder is rated for a maximum of 25 watts, and the entire lighting chain is rated for 1500 watts. This means you can safely use bulbs up to 25W in each socket without exceeding the fixture's capacity. The included 11W incandescent bulbs, as are most LED replacement options, are well within this safety range.
Can these festoon lights be left outside year-round?
Can these festoon lights be left outside year-round?
Thanks to their IP65 rating and commercial-grade construction, these festoon lights can be installed outdoors year-round in most climates. The waterproof universal joints, silicon rubber lamp holders, and heavy-duty rubber cables are designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, heat, and cold. For areas with extreme weather conditions (heavy snow, hurricanes, etc.), you may want to temporarily remove and store them during the most severe weather events.
