Lightscape Opens November 13 at Chicago Botanic Garden: 24 Installations, More Than 80 Percent New, on a 1.3-Mile Trail
Lightscape, the annual after-dark holiday trail at the Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe, Cook County, Illinois, opens on November 13 and runs on select dates through January 3, 2027. The Garden says this year's edition features 24 installations, 20 of them new, along a reimagined 1.3-mile trail that takes most visitors 45 to 75 minutes to walk.
New installations this year include a larger-than-life snow globe visitors can step inside and a ballerina of light who twirls and leaps across the night sky. Lightscape is open from 4:30 to 10:30 p.m. on most evenings, with last entry at 8:45 p.m.; on select dates it closes at 9:30 p.m. with last entry at 7:45 p.m. Tickets are sold in 15-minute entry increments.
Tickets use plan-ahead pricing that varies by date, time and demand; the Garden says many dates currently offer tickets under $30, and a $3 service fee applies to each paid nonmember ticket. Nonmembers must also buy parking: $18 per vehicle in advance or $25 on arrival, while members park free.
Special evenings include a Sensory Friendly night on December 2 with reduced crowds, lowered lights and quieter music; Jingle Jam Family Nights on December 9 and 16 with Santa and festive characters; and 21+ Nights on December 10 and January 1. SNAP recipients can buy reduced-price tickets on the Museums for All dates: November 19, December 3, 9, 10 and 16, and January 1, 2 and 3.
Lightscape is closed on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day, with tickets available for Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. Exchanges are allowed up to 72 hours before the original ticket date for a $10 fee per transaction. The Chicago Botanic Garden is at 1000 Lake Cook Road, Glencoe. Lightscape is presented in partnership with Sony Music and creatively produced by Culture Creative.
