Garden Lights is back at Middleton Place! Explore the Middleton Place Gardens at night in this rare opportunity select nights from January 29 – February 16. The gardens have been transformed by colorful lights highlighting your favorite parts of the gardens just in time for our famous camellia season. Bring your friends and family to experience America’s Oldest Landscaped Gardens in a whole new light.
Embark on a breathtaking walking journey through glowing pathways and garden rooms, each built with intentional design. Guided by the rich history and culture of the South Carolina Lowcountry, the gardens come alive with vibrant hues and thoughtful designs. From the brilliance of Camellia Allée under the night sky to the tranquil reflections in the Sundial Garden overlooking the Ashley River, this immersive art experience is both a celebration of culture and nature and a connection with the past.
In honor of our nation’s 250th anniversary and being home to Arthur Middleton, signer of the Declaration of Independence, Middleton Place is using this opportunity to dedicate a portion of the event to commemorating that history with a vibrant red, white, and blue light display.
Your visit helps preserve our National Historic Landmark for future generations as a space for education, inspiration, and reflection. A portion of each ticket is dedicated to the Middleton Scholars Education Fund, which supports the educational advancement of the African American descendant community.
