Philadelphia's Magic Gardens to Shine Like a Rainbow this Winter
Get ready for an enchanting experience as Philadelphia's iconic South Street landmark transforms into a mesmerizing spectacle of color and light. The "Gardens After Dark" series is back, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the breathtaking mosaics under a starry night sky.
For one magical winter evening each Friday from December 5 through January 2, the entire outdoor space will be aglow with vibrant hues, revealing hidden secrets and transforming narrow passageways into twinkling walkways. The sculptural walls, often overlooked during the day, take on an entirely new persona at night, beckoning explorers to step into a world of wonder.
Visitors are free to wander at their own pace, guided solely by their imagination as they uncover the artistic genius that has made Magic Gardens a beloved destination for over three decades. The pièce de résistance is access to the mosaicked basement, usually reserved for daytime tours, which now offers a unique opportunity to delve deeper into the creative realm of artist Isaiah Zagar.
While every visitor is encouraged to reserve timed tickets in advance, this experience promises to be worth the planning – with prices ranging from $10 for children under five to $20 for adults. Members will enjoy a discounted rate and can look forward to refunds if bad weather forces an event cancellation.
A limited time window of "Gardens After Dark" offers an exclusive chance to witness Magic Gardens in its most enchanting form, when daydreams meet reality, and the boundaries between art and nature blur into one dazzling tapestry.

I'm so stoked for this winter event! I've always loved the Magic Gardens on a sunny day, but at night it's going to be a whole different vibe 
. The idea of exploring those narrow passageways all aglow is like something out of a dream. And can we talk about how cool it is that they're opening up the basement for tours? I've always wanted to see that area, and now I have an excuse to go back 
It's like, art and nature coming together in one epic show 
i mean who doesnt love a good spectacle of color & light? plus its like, free 2 wander around n discover all the hidden secrets @ night 
its def goin 2 b a magical winter eve 
but trust me, its worth it! 
!! magic gardens are already so beautiful during the day but imagine it lit up like a rainbow at night 
its going to be like stepping into a dream world! i love how theyre making the whole space aglow with color and light, its going to be so enchanting 
. I mean, I love Isaiah Zagar's work as much as the next person, but do we really need to pay $20 a pop for some fancy lights and mosaics at night? It just seems like another money grab to me. And what's up with the whole 'hidden secrets' thing? Is it really that hard to figure out how the place was designed? 
Plus, I don't get why they're charging more for members... isn't the point of having a membership to save money? 
. I'm definitely buyin' my tickets now, been thinkin' about it for weeks!
! cant wait to explore all the hidden secrets and twinkling walkways... and getting access to the mosaicked basement is a total game changer!!! i'm def reserving my ticket ASAP 
they're charging $10-$20 for kids to go in and adults are gonna shell out even more? that's steep considering it's just a nighttime lighting setup. plus, isn't the whole point of the magic gardens that it's free and accessible to everyone? now they're making you reserve tickets ahead of time? what if you wanna just drop by on a whim? 
it's sooo cool!! the whole outdoor space is aglow and u can walk through these amazing mosaics under the stars 
the sculptural walls are, like, whoa!!! u get to explore at ur own pace and uncover all the artistic genius that izagar put into this place 
and now its finally gettin the love it deserves. plus, u can explore this crazy maze at nite w/ all these hidden passageways lit up 
its like, a whole new world! got my ticket prezzie @ $15 
it's gonna be so lit! i've been to magic gardens before and its always a vibe, but add in the "gardens after dark" series and its like a whole new level of magic 
. i love how they're gonna transform those passageways into twinkling walkways and make the walls glow at night. it's gonna be so peaceful and enchanting all at once 
. and can we talk about the mosaicked basement? i need to see that in person ASAP
