The Chicago Botanic Garden is hosting its fifth annual holiday celebration. A family fun event where you can engage in a world of color, light, and music. To purchase your tickets view the official website here. 

The event runs on select dates until Jan. 7. Tickets stagger every 15 minutes from 4:30 to 9:15 p.m. The event will run until 11 p.m. each night that it is open. 

This year features an array of new installations while also keeping fan favorites such as the Winter Cathedral and the Fire Garden. Some new installations include “Lilies” from UK artist Jigantics. 5-foot lilies sparkled all across the water to be seen from the bridge.

Stations scattered throughout the garden selling festive foods and sweet drinks. On cold nights walking around the garden with hot chocolate is a must. For more information on the purchasable refreshments, look here. 

The lightscape is a great experience to take your loved ones on. It is catered to be enjoyable for all ages.
