In addition, Philips Hue introduced new Festavia light chains after the success last year of the 4-star Festavia string lighting. This is the most beautiful and fun solution to provide your Christmas tree with festive lighting with 3 lighting zones, almost endless color options and you can synchronize the Festavia with Spotify music. This first Festavia light cord was only for indoor use, one of the downsides in our review. What do the new Philips Hue Festavia outdoor light chains offer?

Philips Hue Festavia light chains
You can use the new generation of Philips Hue Festavia light chains not only to decorate your Christmas tree, but also on your terrace, for example, as garden lighting. This way they give the holidays or any other occasion a magical touch. You can now choose from three different lengths, each with a different amount of mini smart LEDs to decorate your home with dynamic colorful light or just one color for a traditional look. For example, the 8-meter long version has 100 LEDs, the 20-meter version has 250 LEDs and the 40-meter version has no fewer than 500 LEDs.
Light effects
As described above, they are smart lights: for example, you can easily turn them on and off, change color, dim and light up, and you can also set schedules and timers. They also work together with other Philips Hue lamps, so you can also synchronize them with your favorite music via the Spotify and Samsung SmartThings integration.
In addition, 3 new lighting effects have been announced for the Philips Hue app with Prism, Glisten and Opal. It is nice that these light effects will also be available for the first Philips Hue Festavia light cord. In addition, Philips Hue color lamps can also have the Prism effect.
Prices and availability
From September 2023, the 3 different Philips Hue Festavia light chains will be available for sale with recommended prices of €119.99 for 100 LEDs, €219.99 for 250 LEDs and no less than €359.99 for 500 LEDs.
