Glow Wild

About

Step into a world of winter wonder as Glow Wild returns to Wakehurst. Sussex's award-winning festive light trail transforms the wild botanic garden into a dazzling celebration of nature, storytelling and seasonal joy.

This year's theme, Nature's Gift, invites you on an immersive journey of light, sound and movement, unwrapping nature's magical moments across land, sea and sky. Grab a lantern and embark on a new route of handcrafted installations. Join a parade of penguins, marvel at murmurations and watch as the landscape transforms before your eyes.

Embrace the season beneath the giant redwood Christmas tree, with toasted marshmallows, mulled wine and festive feasts to warm the spirit.

Glow Wild caters to all, with early family-friendly slots, relaxed sessions and adult-only evenings. Flexible ticket options include off-peak, standard and peak, with free entry for under 4s and essential companions, plus great group and family discounts.
