*** LUMINARY TOUR CANCELED***
A luminary tour will be offered on Saturday, December 11, 2021 from 5 – 8 p.m. CST. Eden Gardens will illuminate the park for an evening that has become a local holiday tradition. More than 2,000 luminaries will be placed along the garden paths of the park, giving the public the opportunity to experience the magic of Eden at nightfall. There will be music and carolers on the grounds throughout the evening as well as cookies and hot beverages provided by the Friends of Eden Gardens at the pavilion area. The event is free to the public and park entry fees will be waived. Parking will be available in main lot and at Bay Elementary School.
Donations will be accepted.
Please be aware that the park will be quite dark even with the luminaries on the grounds. It is recommend using a flashlight when walking from the parking area to the main grounds.
Please note the Wesley House will not be open to the public during the luminary stroll.
