Night Lights: Color Cascade at New England Botanic Garden
- see all dates
Visitors to the New England Botanic Garden can experience the magic of the season with a breathtaking winter light display, unmatched in the region. This year’s event, Night Lights: Color Cascade, offers a one-of-a-kind winter experience, guiding guests through a dazzling journey of glowing lights in every imaginable color.
Surrounded by a quarter million lights, visitors can enjoy an evening filled with festive activities, including s’mores roasting, seasonal drinks, a model train, holiday shopping, and family-friendly photo opportunities. New for this year, an outdoor skating rink will debut, bringing joy to guests of all ages.
With vibrant landscapes, immersive displays, and unforgettable moments, Night Lights promises an extraordinary winter experience. Tickets must be purchased in advance, and early planning is encouraged, as the event—welcoming 66,000 visitors last year—often sells out.
