Nights of a Thousand Candles

Our staff has worked very hard to transform Brookgreen Gardens into a spectacular holiday display. 

Most of our light displays are created or supervised by the Horticulture department, but all of our staff try to help out in some way.  Many departments prepare and test strands of lights.  Some people clean out our reusable luminaries or help decorate garden trees.  The zoo was responsible for decorating the garden gates.


Each light bulb is attached to the gate using a cable tie.


The zoo also decorated some of our new lighted animals.


Each light bulb was tied to a frame, and the cable ties were trimmed off.  
I named this one porcurabbit - watch out, he bites!


Daphne, our butterfly keeper, did an amazing job on the large crane.


Horticulture arranged the animals in the Children's Garden, and they look amazing!  
This fox was decorated by our butterfly admissions staff.


Our final three Nights of a Thousand Candles are December 19, 20, and 21st.  Tickets can be purchased at the gate or online at  https://www.tickets.brookgreen.org/public/auto_choose_ga.asp?area=10

Please join us as we celebrate the holiday season.
