💬 What Visitors Say
- Arrive after sunset for the best experience - the light installations are designed to be viewed in darkness and create a magical effect as they illuminate. Plan to spend 1-2 hours walking the entire site to see all seven exhibits.
- Invest in the VIP Terrace Experience ($110+ adults) for guaranteed reserved seating, a complimentary welcome beverage, priority entry, and the ability to watch the sunset transition into the light show. This eliminates the hassle of finding seats and wandering in the dark with large groups.
- Wear comfortable walking shoes and layer with a sweater - you'll be walking the entire field and it gets cool in the evening. Bring laminated glow sticks or markers if visiting with a group to easily locate each other in the dark.
- Purchase tickets in advance online to guarantee entry, especially for the Terrace Experience which reserves seating. Check the event calendar for extended hours during peak season (June-September open Thursday-Sunday with longer hours).
- For families with mobility concerns, wheelchair rentals are available on-site. For families with young children, note this is a general admission venue with extensive walking required - consider whether your child can manage the distance, and utilize mobile food ordering to minimize wait times.
