Step into a sparkling winter wonderland at the Bellevue Botanical Garden. With over half a million twinkling lights, Garden d’Lights transforms the landscape into intricate displays of flowers, birds, animals, and waterfalls. This event is a beloved Eastside tradition—since 1994! Making this the 30th year.
Bundle up for a ¾-mile outdoor walk perfect for families, couples, or solo adventurers. Warm up at Copper Kettle Coffee or bring your own beverage (one drink/snack per person allowed). Don’t forget to visit the Trillium Store for nature-inspired gifts. (And for a little friendly competition there is even a scavenger hunt to find plants & lights.)
