The Fort Worth Botanic Garden invites everyone to experience opening night of Christmas in the Garden, a spectacular holiday light event that transforms the garden into a glittering winter wonderland.
From the Gingerbread Walk and colossal Texas Nutcrackers to a radiant, larger-than-life illuminated Texas flag and a breathtaking field of 1,000-plus dancing LED bluebonnets, the trail features a fusion of tradition, whimsy and Texas pride. Guests will also experience the serene glow of the Japanese Garden, a rainbow Christmas Tree Grove and two vibrant walk-through tunnels — the Candy Cane Tunnel and the shimmering Magical Ribbon Tunnel.
Along the trail, Westland Hospitality debuts an all-star lineup of local favorites including JD's Burgers, Magdalena's, Pulido’s, Curly's Custard and Margie’s Italian Gardens. Don’t miss Curly’s exclusive event-only sweet treat: hot cocoa frozen custard topped with toasted marshmallows.
The garden will also have nightly Santa visits through Christmas Eve, offering families the chance to meet the jolly old elf and snap keepsake photos.
Tickets are $13-$22 for ages 3-12 and $20-$32 for adults.
Tickets and additional information are available at fwbg.org/christmas-in-the-garden.
