Each year, Longwood Gardens is completely transformed for A Longwood Christmas … and this year will be no exception as we showcase spectacular garden beauty, how-did-they-do-that displays, hundreds of thousands of twinkling lights, and more.
Join Longwood’s East Conservatory Manager Karl Gercens as he gives a behind-the-scenes look at the magic of A Longwood Christmas and explores the year-long process that goes into making this one-of-a-kind display possible, from initial planning to installation. Enjoy a delicious small bite and signature cocktail to round out the fun!
