The lights will highlight some of the Garden’s most beloved features, such as the Fountain, Lake and Glasshouse Range, and create special experiences around the rest of the Garden. There will be new, original installations that are unique to the Garden, as well as the return of some of last year’s most popular pieces such as the light tunnel and lilies on the Lake.
The Café will be part of the trail with warm offerings, and food stalls halfway around the route will be serving hot drinks and light bites to revive spirits and warm up any chilly fingers!

Three great museums & one amazing trail! The Museum of Zoology has joined with the Sedgwick Museum of Earth Sciences and the Whipple Museum of the History of Science to produce a discovery trail connecting the dots between the study of Earth, the animals that live there and how we work to understand them. This trail will uncover ideas of evolution, theories and how the world works.
Pick up your booklet in any of the three museums, and don't forget to have it stamped before you move onto the next museum.
Happy Exploring!
