When the sun goes down…the tails start wagging! Select Wednesday evenings your four‑legged friends get their very own night to sniff, stroll and shine at Garden: After Dark. It’s the perfect yappy hour, grab a drink and pup cup (while supplies last) and hit the trails!
Experience Garden: After Dark, where the desert shines brighter, the trails glow with color and Desert Pulse creates a perfect nighttime escape.
Wander through the Garden’s 10 immersive light displays, each transforming the desert landscape into a glowing experience. As you follow the illuminated trails, vibrant colors and rhythmic light displays bring the desert to life in unexpected ways.
The signature feature, Desert Pulse, creates a mesmerizing atmosphere that turns the Garden into a radiant nighttime escape. Every installation offers a new perspective, inviting guests to pause, explore and experience the desert like never before. View the trail insert.
Dogs not permitted at Gertrude’s by Tarbell’s, The RAF Gallery.
For the health and safety of guests and dogs, please note the following:
Stay hydrated! Water fountains and refill stations are located throughout the Garden.
Clean up after your dog and deposit bagged waste in trash receptacles.
Dogs must be on a leash, licensed and up-to-date on vaccinations.
Owners must maintain control of their dogs at all times.
Any dogs deemed to be aggressive to humans or other dogs will be asked to leave the Garden.
Watch those noses and paws! Be alert to cactus pieces and other debris on the trails and do not allow dogs to wander off trail.
Be aware of your dog’s limits and monitor your pet for signs of heat stress.
