The 19th Annual Holiday Luminary Walk

. . . the Arboretum by Candlelight 

Thousands of candles illuminate over a mile of pathways through woods and gardens, music fills the air, while holiday lights brighten the trees, buildings and bridges. This is the 19th year for what has become the traditional kick-off of the holiday season for many families. Kids love the Gnome and Fairy Villages, the colorful Children’s Garden and visiting with Santa. Grown-ups appreciate the quiet walk through the winter woods and the many musical performances. And everyone enjoys hot Louisburg Cider around the campfire, served by Boy Scout Troop 222, followed by a horse-drawn wagon ride.

We have been delighted each year as the popularity of the Luminary Walk has grown. In fact, it maybe has gotten too popular. So to ensure that everyone has an enjoyable experience, we will be limiting the number of tickets sold this year and require purchases for a specific night IN ADVANCE online or at the Arboretum before event day. Tickets will not be available at the gate each evening. No refunds.

The Luminary is the major fund-raiser for the Friends of the Arboretum (FOTA); all proceeds are used entirely to benefit the Arboretum. More details about the Luminary can be found on the Event Information page.
