Lauritzen Gardens Bright Nights
Set a merry mood with friends and family and explore the illuminated floral display hall, the two houses of the Marjorie K. Daugherty Conservatory, and Sofia’s Play Garden during Bright Nights. From a 20-foot-tall poinsettia tree to a glowing forest of trees, guests will discover dazzling installations that showcase nature in a whole new light.
This year’s show invites guests into a Nordic winter wonderland, where a forest of wooden trees crafted from reclaimed pallets rises amid twinkling lights and whispering evergreens.
