The Garden Christmas Light Displays At Norfolk Botanical Garden In Virginia Is Pure Holiday Magic
Norfolk Botanical Garden is a breathtaking destination any time of year, but if you visit over the holidays, you’ll have the added benefit of over one million twinkling lights. Visitors can choose from a walking tour known as the Million Bulb Walk (November 8th – December 14th) or the drive-through Garden of Lights (December 15th – 31st). Each promises to enchant everyone in your family with the magic of the holiday season. So bundle up, wear your most comfortable walking shoes, and don’t forget to make a holiday music playlist if you plan to drive.

The Million Bulb Walk is a beloved holiday tradition at Norfolk Botanical Garden. From 4:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m., visitors can walk through the enchanting display of lights.
Some visitors arrive early in the afternoon so they can walk through the daytime garden display before enjoying the Million Bulb Walk. It's the best of both worlds!
At the end of the 1-mile pathway, there's a trolly that will take you back to the beginning. You might find this to be just as enjoyable as the walk itself!
