In a statement published on Sunday, Crystal Palace Park Trust said it shared the "disappointment and frustration at this unanticipated and unforeseen situation".
The trust added it had found itself the legal owners of the installations but said by law, it had to give Outreach Creative Ltd, the company behind Lightopia, an opportunity to collect the equipment before disposing of it. Residents had described the area as looking like "an abandoned circus", while others spoke of their concerns about the dangers posed to young children and pets.Residents previously said they were worried that children and dogs could injure themselves on metal stakes
Lightopia, which was forced to shut over a weekend in November after cracks in floodlights were deemed unsafe, described itself as "London's finest festival of lights". It said it had the aim of "bringing a culturally rich, highly entertaining and immersive experience to everyone, every Christmas".
