Our first giveaway was such a success that I was able to get a few more tickets for a lucky SVM Macaroni Kid reader. So, enter to win two tickets - take it as an opportunity for a wonderful date night (or if you want to take the kids, you can always purchase additional tickets).
CLICK HERE for my review of our experience at Garden Lights, Holiday Lights from a few weeks ago!
Garden Lights, Holiday Nights is open nightly at Atlanta Botanical Garden through January 7th. Enjoy botanical-inspired light displays throughout the 30-acre Midtown attraction. Unlike other area holiday light displays, this spectacular event allows visitors to meander among garden displays - including giant snowflakes, fleeting bumblebees and a towering “praying Santa mantis” – while sipping hot drinks and listening to strolling carolers.
The show, open daily from 5 to 10 p.m. (except for December 24 and 31), centers around a magical atmosphere of graceful light displays of plants and figures inspired by the Garden’s living collections and crafted from thousands of strings of tiny colored lights. Tickets are $18.95 for adults; $12.95, children 3-12. Discounted tickets for Garden members are $14.95 adults, $9.95 children 3-12. While touring Garden Lights, Holiday Nights, presented by the Kendeda Foundation, visitors may enjoy live entertainment, a quaint model train display, cash bars, and food from MetroFresh in the Garden.
