'Lightscape' To Light Up San Diego Botanic Garden Again This Holiday Season

ENCINITAS, CA — The popular light experience Lightscape will once again light up San Diego Botanic Garden this holiday season.

Now in its fourth year, Lightscape runs from Nov. 14 through Jan. 4 at the 37-acre botanical garden in Encinitas. This year's reimagined experience will illuminate the garden with new artistic installations, along with some returning light-filled favorites throughout a mile-long walking trail.

"Lightscape continues to be a holiday tradition that people look forward to every year, and we are thrilled to officially kick off the holiday season with its return to the San Diego Botanic Garden," said Ari Novy, president and CEO of San Diego Botanic Garden.

"Our team has loved watching this event grow bigger every year, and cannot wait for everyone to see what this year's trail has in store," Novy said. "Lightscape offers a unique opportunity for visitors of all ages to celebrate and make memories together."

The holiday light trails have been dazzling the world's biggest cities for more than 10 years, including sold-out runs in Chicago, London, Melbourne and New York. Custom-designed for San Diego, the light trail at San Diego Botanic Garden showcases eye-catching artistic installations from international artists, including a field of fireflies, illuminated California poppies, a laser garden and tunnels of lights.

This year's immersive experience will feature the addition of two 21 and over nights on Nov. 20 and Dec. 4, along with being open on Christmas Eve.

San Diego Botanic Garden is located at 300 Quail Gardens Drive in Encinitas.

Tickets start at $28 for adults and $18 for children. Children ages 2 and under are free. Prices vary by date. Visit sdbg.org/lightscape to purchase tickets.
