Events A Forest of Lights

Join us this winter as thousands of lights transform VINS into an enchanted realm. Experience the magic of the VINS Forest Canopy Walk as you take in the lights of the season. New additions this year include a twinkling Snowflake Tunnel, the Blue & White Icicle Tower and the Fairy Lighting Hideaway.

We are delighted to welcome you back or for your first visit. This enchanting exhibit promises to be a very special experience and is a great time to make memories with family and friends.

After your walk through, cozy up by the campfire and enjoy hot chocolate and delightful snacks that are available for purchase. The Forest of Lights will be open on specific evenings from 5 PM to 7 PM, beginning November 24, 2023. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the forest like never before!
