This winter, San Antonio Botanical Garden invites residents to experience a breathtaking display of light and art with the debut of Illuminate.
The show is made possible by the internationally acclaimed Chinese Lantern Festival producer Tianyu Arts & Culture. It promises an amazing luminous spectacle to dazzle visitors with hundreds of handcrafted lanterns that will transform the Garden into a mesmerizing wonderland of light and color.
Illuminate succeeds “Lightscape,” a show that brought huge crowds to the garden for the past three years.
The new show will take guests on an immersive journey through larger-than-life installations, glowing tunnels, and vibrant scenes celebrating the beauty of nature and cultural artistry. As the sun sets, the Garden will come alive with radiant animals, intricate blossoms, and whimsical displays, creating an unforgettable experience for all ages.
“We are excited to offer the community this incredible opportunity to come together and experience such a stunning exhibition,” Katherine Trumble, President & CEO of the San Antonio Botanical Garden, said.
She added, “Illuminate brings a unique blend of art and nature to San Antonio, providing a space where families and individuals can connect, enjoy the beauty of the Garden, and be inspired by breathtaking artistry. It’s truly a gift to our city, and we’re honored to be able to share it.”
The display will be available from Nov. 29 – Jan. 12, 2025.
