Brooklyn’s Glow-Up: Lightscape Returns!

➡️💡 Starting Nov. 21, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden transforms into an enchanted forest with Lightscape, a one-mile trail of glowing fireflies, neon bluebonnets, magical birds, and the fan-favorite Winter Cathedral. Think Narnia meets Times Square—minus the taxis. 🚖❄️

But before you grab your earmuffs and selfie stick 🤳🧣, here’s the ticket scoop:

• 🎟️ Tickets go on sale Monday, Sept. 24 at 10 a.m. (BBG members get early access Sept. 17).
• 💻 Tickets are sold via ShowClix online (or by phone: 866-220-4001, 10 a.m.–6 p.m.).
• 🚪 Reminder: BBG closes daily at 3:30 p.m. and only reopens at night for Lightscape ticket holders.
• ❌ Free daytime admission perks don’t apply—Lightscape is a special event.
• 👩‍👩‍👧 Members still score discounts when logged in; extra guests = full price.
• 🔄 Change of plans? Tickets can be exchanged (not refunded) with ShowClix for a $10 fee.
• 🌧️ Rain or snow, the lights go on—but if weather turns dangerous, BBG will notify you by 2 p.m. with rebooking info.

So grab your glow crew, layer up, and let the lights lead the way 🌌🔥🍫. Tickets will vanish faster than hot cocoa on a windy night—don’t wait!
