WINTERLIGHTS5 P.M. - 9 P.M.
The Garden at Newfields is aglow with more than a million and a half lights for the sixth season of Winterlights presented by Bank of America. The tradition continues, bringing wonder and warmth to the holiday season. Old favorites return and new additions shine bright.
Landscape of Light dances to the Nutcracker on Lilly Allée, while wind whistles in the Ice Storm Walk. The season is bright inside Lilly House, where the halls are decked with elegant hand-made holiday cheer. Whimsy welcomes young and old to experience the all-new sculpture, Big Piñata, by Monterrey, Mexico based art collective, Happy Rebels. The piñata is a traditional symbol of Las Posadas, a Latin American seasonal celebration. Another new addition, Astraeus, by local artists Owens + Crawley, lights the way through the woods as guests wander from Lilly House to Winter Market. Guests will be enchanted by a dazzling display of color blossoms in the new Glowing Garden.
Festive fare includes a new spiced cider, Sugar Plum Snow Day, an exclusive collaboration with Ash & Elm Cider Co. Crowd favorite Sun King Brewing Co.’s Electric Reindeer brown ale is back again this year, along with hot apple cider, hot cocoa and sweet treats including gingerbread popcorn from Just Pop In! and giant chocolate chip cookies from Circle City Sweets.
Bundle up to join us for another year of memories beneath the twinkling lights at Newfields.
