Midsummer Night's Gleam

We are thrilled to announce the return of Midsummer Night’s Gleam at Foster Botanical Garden on Saturday, July 19, from 3:00 to 9:00 p.m. This magical, family-friendly evening will feature vibrant performances, interactive activities like nature crafts, all culminating in a breathtaking display of thousands of lights and luminaries at sunset. Food trucks will offer sweet and savory treats, or guests may bring their own food and non-alcoholic beverages (no alcohol, smoking, pets, high-back chairs, or tables allowed).

The garden will close from 12:00 to 3:00 p.m. for event setup, and parking on-site is reserved for ADA needs only—attendees are encouraged to use public transit or nearby paid lots. Stay tuned in for ticketing information and programming highlights. Those will be published in mid-June.
