What time does the Huis Ten Bosch lights show start and is it worth to see it until the park's closing time?

Question

Hi We're visiting Huis Ten Bosch on Apr. 5 the whole day. But we're only commuting going to- and returning to Tenjin. I would love to see Huis Ten Bosch's lights and illumination show but we're not sure if we're going back to Tenjin on the night of Apr. 5 (Last bus leaves at 8:00pm) OR the next day. Hence, it boils down to lights show experience. Hence:

  1. What time does the light show start and end?

  2. Is it worth staying for the light show until 9:00pm for us to decide to stay at a nearby hotel and just leave early the next day for Tenjin?

  3. OR is the light show restricted to certain areas that allotting, say, an hour for it is enough already? (After the show we take the bus back to Tenjin which leaves 8:00pm).

Hoping to get your kind responses for those who have been in Huis Ten Bosch and witnessed its light shows. Thank you.
