Tickets on Sale Sept. 29 for Garden Lights, Holiday Nights!

Monday, September 25th, 2023

Tickets for the Atlanta Botanical Garden’s Garden Lights, Holiday Nights presented by Invesco QQQ go on sale September 29, and the 13th annual show features lots of new displays – in a big way.

Think life-size deer, gigantic butterflies and one enormous white rabbit appearing in the much-anticipated event, set for November 18 – January 14.

New for this year’s light show are:

A giant all white skynet suspended near the Flower Walk by Patrick Shearn of Poetic Kinetics, the artist for 2021's SUPERnatural exhibit in Storza Woods. The 144-foot-long by 11-foot-wide canopy will be dramatically lit from above.

Large illuminated metal sculptures of deer and birds positioned in the Anne Cox Chambers Garden. The ethereal sculptures by French artist Cedric Le Borgne include two deer grazing among the grasses and six birds (including four from last year’s show) perched among the hardwoods or taking flight through the treetops.

The towering White Rabbit from a previous Alice in Wonderland-themed mosaiculture exhibition, covered in multi-colored lights and holding court at the center of the Skyline Garden pond (Spoiler alert: The sculpture doubles as a preview to the Alice-themed exhibition returning to the Garden in spring 2024!).

Gigantic lighted butterflies -- each 11 feet wide -- suspended from the treetops above Camellia Walk.

A new Gardenwide color scheme emphasizing warm hues, such as fiery reds and oranges in the Levy Parterre and white and champagne throughout Crape Myrtle Allee.

A new Kiss Me Arch featuring a crescent moon and mistletoe, perfect for those romantic Instagrammable moments.
