There are stars in the sky, then there are the stars in the garden: visiting stars create an enchanted night walk at South Coast Botanic Garden.
This year, the immersive light display embraces a wellness-inspired approach with an experience as both a restorative retreat and a dazzling visual journey. Guests are invited to leave behind their daily stress and reconnect with nature, finding calm through light and sound.
The experience consists of nine immersive zones filled with radiant light installations, 360ยบ soundscapes, and cosmic storytelling, all designed to awaken the senses and inspire connection under the stars.
New this season: an optional Breathwork Class add-on on select dates. The guided sessions take place before the night walk, inviting participants to ground themselves and set mindful intentions before embarking on their celestial journey.
This event is recommended for adults and children over 4 years of age. While young children are welcome to participate, please be aware the experience takes place at night and requires trekking about one mile through natural, uneven terrain.
Advisory: The event contains many strong lighting effects, some of which may flicker or strobe. Some exhibits also have high levels of fog effects.
