Experience Garden Glow presented by Kroger, Maymont's largest annual fundraiser. Wander through dazzling light displays across Maymont’s grounds, including an immersive light display through the Japanese Garden. Celebrate the season at the Glow Village, featuring cozy fire pits, local food trucks, festive beverages from the Glow Bars sponsored by CoStar Group and fun activities for all ages. Guests typically spend about 90 minutes exploring the mile-long experience.
**Due to chilly temperatures and a minimum temperature requirement outlined in the Richmond Symphony musicians' collective bargaining agreement, the Symphony will no longer be able to perform at Garden Glow. This requirement helps protect both the musicians and their instruments.
But don't let the change in plans dim your excitement. Garden Glow is still happening, and we can't wait to welcome you!
