I saw Garden Lights, Holiday Nights at the Atlanta Botanical Garden when it debuted in 2011, and it’s on my short list of holiday events to make it out to in 2012:
Garden Lights, Holiday Nights is gorgeous, and this year sounds more impressive than last: “Glimmering with more than 1 million lights, the show will blanket the Garden’s 30 acres in every shimmering color under the rainbow. New sparkling attractions include spectacular lighting effects casting an icy cool vibe on the ‘Liquid Lights’ in the Cascades Garden, while the ‘Starry Night Walk’, inspired by Van Gogh’s famous painting, features dozens of swirling stars twinkling along the walkway through the camellias. The Great Lawn will once again be transformed into ‘Orchestral Orbs’–a one-of-a-kind topiary light show choreographed to holiday music. Meet Lumina in person–the mysteriously beautiful sprite who flitters about the Garden spreading holiday magic to children. Find enchanting frog elves (frelves) hidden along the paths, and look for a bejewled dragonfly, dozens more lighted trees and shrubs in gorgeous colors palettes and plenty of high-tech wows throughout the conservatories.”
The downside is that even Garden members are required to purchase a ticket. The upside is that you can save:
