Glow in the Garden at VanDusen Botanical Garden

When: Thursday October 17 - Sunday October 27 2019
Times: 5:00 PM - 9:00 PM [book time slots in advance*] Where: VanDusen Botanical Garden 5251 Oak St, Vancouver Cost: $13.50 Tickets are now on sale for VanDusen Glow in the Garden! Due to popular demand, this year we've expanded the walk and created three time slots to allow more visitors to experience this unique event. Join us this Halloween season for a walk through a new light show with unique features and magical moments. The old barred owl has played a Halloween trick by casting a “hootenanny” spell and making it glow. Take a journey through the garden and help Anna the hummingbird and her friends lift the spell by collecting Halloween treats along the way. Visitors of all ages will enjoy tasty treats, crafts, food vendors, a scavenger hunt and much more. We highly recommend purchasing ticketsin advance. We had many sellout nights last year and we expect the earlier time slots and weekend nights to sell out fast. *Tickets are available in three time slots:
