ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Dazzling Nights will return to Harry P. Leu Gardens this holiday season, bringing a mile-long illuminated walking experience to the 50-acre botanical garden.<\/p>\n

The event runs from Nov. 20, 2026, through Jan. 3, 2027, and will feature a mix of light displays, live performances, interactive attractions and food and beverage offerings throughout the gardens.<\/p>\n

Organizers say several new elements will be added this year, including a 50-foot illuminated snowman, a new acrobatic dance performance, large-scale light installations, interactive play areas and themed environments spread across the property.<\/p>\n

Among the featured attractions are the Poinsettia Promenade, an illuminated tunnel of poinsettias, Polar Nights, a display of choreographed Christmas trees, and the Crystal Kingdom, which includes winter-themed interactive elements.<\/p>\n

Timed-entry tickets will be available nightly beginning at 5:30 p.m. Tickets start at $35 for adults and $33 for children ages 4-12, while children 3 and younger are admitted free.<\/p>\n

The event will again offer off-site parking with shuttle transportation to the gardens. On-site parking will be available through valet service.<\/p>\n
