This winter, visitors can experience the State Botanical Garden of Georgia as it transforms into a wonderland of lights for the fourth year of Winter WonderLights.

Tickets are now available at wonderlights.uga.edu.

Winter WonderLights, presented by the UGA Office of the President, has become a beloved Athens tradition. For the third year in a row, it was named the best local event in the Athens Banner-Hearld Community’s Choice Awards. The show attracted over 63,000 visitors last year.

The show will run on select evenings from Nov. 24 through Dec. 30. Visitors will travel through a Winter Wondercave, along Jingle Bell Lane, into the Northern Lights and through a Frosted Forest, among other dazzling features.

The garden will also offer a special event for the new year, WonderLights Disco Nights, on Jan. 2-5, 2025. Disco Nights will allow visitors to experience the light show trail while grooving to disco hits.
