Nowhere else in the world is there a setting that marries fountains, theater, and garden, establishing our Main Fountain Garden as the finest performance fountain in the world. As the culmination of the legacy and vision of Pierre S. du Pont, the garden combines classic landscape design with art, innovation, technology, and extraordinary fountains.

From 12-minute performances that begin with a touch of narrated history and conclude with dynamic choreography marrying music and water, to splashes of fountain magic that tease select evenings’ Illuminated Fountain Performances, our daily fountain performances are the stars of the Main Fountain Garden experience. During these daytime performances, delight in 1,719 jets spinning, dancing to music, and soaring as high as 175 feet, while enjoying the classic European garden design of this spectacular five-acre space.

Offered on select nights from May through October, our 30-minute Illuminated Fountain Performances are nothing short of a spectacle. During these incredible performances, settle into the starlit setting of the nighttime Main Fountain Garden and watch in awe as water in all shapes, sizes, and heights meets thrilling music and infinite colors. The result is absolutely unforgettable.
