The award-winning Botanic Lights event at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh is back. This year, the event will take visitors on an all-new journey of light around the Garden, exploring regions of the world where the Garden’s plants and trees originate.
As darkness descends, light installations will transform popular Garden features such as the Victorian Palm House, the Chinese Hillside and Inverleith House, while illuminating the rich living collection of plants, turning the Garden itself into the story of a voyage around the world.
