- see all dates
Except November 17, 2025, November 27, 2025, December 24, 2025, December 25, 2025.
Enchanted: Forest of Light is an interactive, nighttime experience, featuring a one-mile walk through unique lighting displays throughout Descanso Gardens.
Tom Fruin’s charming “stained glass” houses return, creating a village of
their own on the Main Lawn, featuring new interactive lighting options. Other returning favorites include sparkling geometric installations from HYBYCOZO in the Rose Garden Flower Power on the Promenade; and exquisite lighting effects in the Ancient Forest.
Read our review from previous years for more details.
