Longwood Gardens' 2026 Christmas Display Goes Cosmic With 500,000 Lights
Kennett Square, Pa. -- Longwood Gardens will open A Longwood Christmas on November 20, 2026, running through January 10, 2027, with a cosmos-themed holiday display and timed tickets already available at longwoodgardens.org.
A galaxy-themed display fills the conservatories with gilded trees and star motifs
Visitors entering the Visitor Center will see images from the Hubble and James Webb space telescopes, recommended by the Space Telescope Science Institute. A 22-foot rotating Frasier fir wrapped in a lit shooting-star garland stands on the Center Walk, while an 18-foot Fraser fir slowly revolves in the Music Room alongside Pierre S. du Pont's 1923 Porter Garden Telescope. More than 25 poinsettia varieties, paperwhites, and amaryllis fill the conservatories.
