Take a breathtaking stroll through the main gardens of Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center which are lit by never-before-seen immersive light installations for 2024. Luminations, the Wildflower Center’s Annual, ever-changing light show, is a space for the whole family to enjoy winter magic.
This year, the climbable forts of Fortlandia will be included in Luminations, giving a special draw for kids of all ages. Also on our radar are the full-service bars for grown-ups, as well as a revolving lineup of local food trucks and other kid-friendly offerings. Also new this year, Luminations will be throughout the Wildflower Center’s Main Gardens, making it a more walkable and even more immersive experience.
