2024 Conservatory of Lights scheduled for Cheyenne Botanic Gardens

Published on November 26, 2024

The Cheyenne Botanic Gardens will host Conservatory of Lights beginning Tuesday, Dec. 4, and continuing on selected dates through Dec. 27, 2024.

Patrons will step into a tropical winter wonderland, where the enchanting fusion of warm breezes and festive cheer creates an unforgettable holiday experience. As guests stroll through this magical realm, vibrant music and dazzling lights dance in harmony, infusing the air with joy. There’s even a whimsical scavenger hunt that will lead through lush greenery and sparkling decorations, offering delightful surprises at every turn. After the adventure, guests can indulge in a steaming cup of rich coffee or decadent hot cocoa, available for purchase in the gift shop.

To alleviate crowding and ensure a better experience, the Gardens have instituted free timed tickets. Those who attend will need to visit www.botanic.org/events to select a date and time for their tickets. These tickets must be presented on a phone or as a printed copy to enter.

Conservatory of Lights will be open from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on selected dates—Dec. 4, 5, 11, 12, 18, 19, 20, 21, 26, and 27. A special preview for members of the Friends of the Cheyenne Botanic Gardens will be held Dec. 3 from 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The Conservatory will be cleared each of these days at 4:45 p.m. to prepare for those with tickets.
