Celebrate the holiday season at Bright Nights where twinkling lights and dazzling decor transform the garden into a winter wonderland. Make memories with the family as you cozy up by the firepits, roast some s'mores, play festive games in the Family Chill Zone, capture the moment in front of the 20' tall poinsettia tree, enjoy the whistle of model garden trains, and marvel at the shimmering displays showcase nature in a whole new light.

This year's show invites guests into a Nordic winter wonderland, where a forest of wooden trees crafted from reclaimed pallets rises amid twinkling lights and whispering evergreens. Wander through Sofia's Play Garden, aglow for the first time with enchanting lights and playful displays and keep an eye out for a couple of cheerful trolls joining in the holiday fun.
Enjoy festive food and drinks, including sโ€™mores, from Abraham Catering and Jโ€™s Coffee (additional fees apply). Bars will be open every evening with an array of beer, wine, and featured cocktails.
