The Magical Johnsonville Night Lights at Naples Botanical Garden

This weekend kicked off the one-of-a-kind annual Johnsonville Night Lights at the Naples Botanical Garden. It is an extravaganza of lights and a favorite on everyone’s must-see-list this holiday season.

The Naples Botanical Garden is one of my favorite places to visit during the day but the experience is magical and enchanting during the holiday season.

The lights at the Burle Marx mural are tantalizing and the Kapnick Caribbean Garden lawn has that surreal visual effect with Pat Dougherty’s undulating and twisting Stickworks. In the Scott Florida Garden the glamorous and scary La Calavera Catrina are all lit up – showcasing their fashionable and colorful hats and accessories.

To enhance your evening visit, the Garden has scheduled live musical performances nightly on the Water Garden Stage. The Fogg Café will be offering a full menu with seasonal favorites along with Johnsonville Hot Dogs and bratwurst from the grilling station.

The nightlight exhibit is a popular family tradition and it is suggested you book early to get your preferred visitation time. The Johnsonville Night Lights are through December 23; December 26 through December 30; and January 1, 2023.
