Celebrate the spirit of the season surrounded by artistic installations during Lightscape at the Chicago Botanic Garden. From November 15 to January 5, on select dates, the illuminated trail will set the Garden aglow with light, art and music.
“Lightscape provides an opportunity to be captivated by immersive experiences while enjoying a festive evening outdoors with friends and family,” says Jodi Zombolo, associate vice president of Visitor Events & Programs. “Lightscape debuted in the U.S. in 2019 at the Garden and is now one of four locations in the U.S. that host Lightscape on an annual basis.”
This year’s new path features a fan favorite from the debut year, Submergence, by U.K. artist Squidsoup, an immersive, walk-through experience with suspended strands of light. Attendees can also participate in themed nights—Tuesdays are Glow, Wednesdays are Pajama and Thursdays are Ugly Sweater. Additionally, adults can enjoy special 21+ Hours from 7 to 11 p.m., November 21 and December 5, with specialty cocktails and mocktails available for purchase.
Notable installations like the Winter Cathedral will return, along with a reimagined version of the Singing Trees.
Location: 1000 Lake Cook Rd., Glencoe. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit ChicagoBotanic.org/Lightscape.
