There’s something really special about seeing the Brooklyn Botanic Garden come alive after dark, and Lightscape brings the winter magic. Now in its fifth year, this beloved event invites guests to wander through an illuminated trail of art, color, and music. The moment you step inside, you are surrounded by light moving through the trees and across the water. Every corner feels like a new discovery. It is part art exhibit and part holiday dream. It is an easy way to slow down, bundle up, and enjoy the season with the people you love most.

- A New Trail of Light: Explore an all-new route filled with reimagined art and soundscapes that highlight the beauty of the garden in winter.
