The Garden Christmas Light Displays At Garden D’Lights In Washington Are Pure Holiday Magic

Whether or not you’re a fan of “the most wonderful time of the year,” we can all admit that Christmas light displays are delightful. And if you’d rather enjoy a more laid back experience than some of our state’s crowded holiday attractions, we recommend heading to Bellevue and checking out Garden d’Lights. This annual experience is always d’lightful.

Garden d'Lights is the annual holiday tradition at the Bellevue Botanical Garden.

That being said, the lights are just as fun for adults.
If you're lucky, you'll even be treated to some live music while you're at the gardens.

Quite a few local choirs and quartets will be performing Christmas carols while guests look at the lights. The schedule is on the Bellevue Botanical Gardens website.
These displays are beautiful, but the weather outside can be frightful. Luckily, you can warm up inside.
