Longwood Gardens will begin its light show, A Longwood Christmas, on Thursday, Nov. 26. Inside of the Conservatory, more than 500,000 blue and white twinkling lights, whirling fountain features, thousands of seasonal plants, and decorated trees will be on display. Outside, an Italian-style theatre has been expanded from its original fountains to 750 jets, which create a water curtain for the fountain show. The Italian Water Garden will also be illuminated by a 20-foot tree. Tickets are required and guests will be asked to choose the time they wish to see the show.
