BROOKLYN BOTANIC GARDEN – VISITORS TO THE Brooklyn Botanic Garden have just one more week to explore the iconic Lightscape exhibit, which has enchanted more than 60,000 guests this holiday season.

Lightscape, now in its fifth year and open through Sunday, Jan. 4, 2026, features one million lights along a mile-long trail of 19 immersive installations across the garden. The trail is custom-designed each year and builds on the natural beauty of BBG’s landscapes: trees, water features and architectural details. A custom playlist enlivens the trail, with music timed to each light installation.

Tickets are available through the garden’s website.
