It’s the holiday season and Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is decked out for the occasion. The Belmont destination is hosting its annual Holidays at the Garden event through Sunday, Dec. 29.

From 5 to 10 p.m., guests can roam the garden amidst thousands of twinkling lights, an outdoor fire, beautiful photo ops, and plenty of holiday cheer.

What’s new this year? Take a ride on the trackless train running every Friday through Dec. 20, snap selfies with Santa, and visit the adults-only speakeasy featuring holiday cocktails.

What about dinner? Food trucks are expected to be at the Levine Pavilion + sip on beer, wine, or a hot drink from the Prairie Shed and Beer Garden.

Tickets range $24-$28 for adults, children under 2 get in free + members receive a 20% discount.

Pro tip: Wear comfortable shoes to walk the paths more than once.
