Enchanted Forest of Light: A Magical Walk + Holiday Market with food, drinks and much merriment.

The walk is an interactive, nighttime experience unlike anything else in Los Angeles, featuring a one-mile walk through unique lighting experiences in some of the most beloved areas of Descanso Gardens (only 20 minutes from Downtown LA).

Illuminated favourites include an entire town of magical “stained glass” creations on the Main Lawn by contemporary sculptor Tom Fruin; sparkling geometric installations from HYBYCOZO in the Rose Garden; Flower Power on the Promenade; and exquisite lighting effects in the Ancient Forest.

This event will take place at 7pm PST. Please note this is a timed entry ticket, no early entry is allowed. Later entry is permitted. Further information will be shared with those who register.
