If you have just visited Denver for the first time, just moved here, or been a long-time resident you probably have heard mention of the Denver Botanic Gardens. A brilliant display of unique plants, flowers and trees during the summer, you may wonder what the winter holds. Well the Blossoms of Light event is worth the entry alone and braving the cold weather. Just bring an extra layer or two, some hot chocolate or coffee, ad enjoy the vast illuminated swatches of the park, and see how brilliantly lit everything is for that large dose of holiday cheer. The lights come on right when it’s dark, and the Gardens close at 9 each night. Weekday visits can be preferred if you are trying to avoid a larger crowd. The weekend crowd can be quite large. The price varies at the door, but it is inexpensive for what you are getting. This will run until New Years Day, so do and try to get it in before your holiday weekends start to fill up. We have many obligations to our Denver property management partners this year, and so must be strategic with hitting these annual events that are worth the price of admission. The lights cover every inch of the Gardens, and there are many installations that move, change color, and appear not as they seem upon closer inspection. If you add the HoloSpex glasses to the mix you now have a visually interesting night ahead of you. This week is supposed to be pretty clod, so you may want to make sure you haven’t forgotten things like hats, gloves and scarves. But the weather should warm back up to the 40’s and 50’s for the weekend, so you may find that that is the best day to go. Either way, we highly recommend checking out the Blossoms of Light at the Denver Botanic Gardens. This annual holiday light extravaganza transforms the York Street Location into a twinkling winter wonderland. As mentioned before there are interactive light displays conveniently placed equidistant throughout the Botanic Gardens, a large field of sound reactive and animated LED lights as well as seasonal entertainment on select nights. We recommend checking out the calendar for December on the official website, if you would like to make your stop the same night the carolers will be combing the grounds. Pick up your HoloSpex glasses, some warm drinks and those holiday treats and get out there. And as always, for any Denver property management related news, be sure to subscribe to our mailing list.
