This isn’t the cheapest event in town, but it is one of the most fun for a fall evening. Luminaria-lined pathways wind through the Denver Botanic Gardens to reveal larger-than-life pumpkin displays during Glow at the Gardens. Musicians, dancers and performing artists bring spirits and specters to life, and scores of hand-carved jack-o’-lanterns harvested from local farms light up the night with grins and grimaces fit for the season.
Bring a macabre mood for this enchanted autumnal experience. Seasonal treats and non-alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase at the Hive Garden Bistro.
Guests are encouraged to dress up in costume.
The event runs 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday, October 22 to 27, 2024.
Tickets are $26 – $32/public, $24 – $30/members, $24 – $30/military, $28 – $30/students. Free for children 2 and under (no ticket required).
Timed tickets will be issued with last entry at 9 p.m. Tickets are limited in each 30-minute time slot and often sell out.
