Lightscape first premiered to sold out crowds in the U.K. and then Chicago and this year will shine throughout the San Antonio Botanical Garden.
Magical light displays set along a beautifully illuminated one-mile path flowing through the Botanical Garden will delight visitors. These mesmerizing illuminations will dazzle the senses, and the exhibition will feature installations produced by local and international artists that are unique to Texas.
The trail itself will offer a one-of-a-kind experience, combining new works like a field of Texas bluebonnets with visitor favorites like the show-stopping Cathedral of Light, a towering cathedral arch tunnel shimmering with 100,000 lights.
Guests will be able to enjoy festive food and drinks, including roasting s’mores, in addition to the mesmerizing light shows.
Lightscape is a truly unforgettable, family-friendly walking event that is ideal for holiday entertainment and get-togethers. Tickets are expected to sell out quickly, so be sure to buy yours soon!
