The Conservatory’s holiday celebration after hours — awe-inspiring indoor and outdoor light displays, festive igloos, the 100-foot light tunnel, the Paul Busse Garden Railway, ornament trees, and seasonal Holiday Blooms throughout the biomes. New for 2026: the Whirly Tree by Tork Inc., a life-sized Candyland board game, and a winter wonderland dance party — plus live entertainment on select evenings, food trucks, and bars.
