Year one of Bright Lights was so fun, we’re bringing it back and we can’t wait to start a new family tradition with everyone!
5K participants will explore our entire property and will enjoy a multi surface race that includes asphalt, grass, trails, and garden pathways. New in 2024 we will be illuminating more trails and garden spaces than ever before to create an unforgettable experience. That last mile is a memorable one as you run through the garden and immerse yourself in seasonal garden displays, lights, and fountains.
Fun Run participants will get to enjoy the Garden lights display at a pace that is comfortable for them. A 1.25-mile jaunt through the garden is perfect for all ages and is a great multi-generational family experience!
After the race, participants can enjoy free entry to the garden to get a sneak peek at the lights before we open to the public.
Space is limited so be sure to sign up early as this race sold out in 2023!
Custom awards will be given to the top three overall male and female finishers and the top three male and female finishers 14 and under thru 60 and better in five-year age increments in the 5K.
