Longwood Christmas

Details

Blue and white twinkling lights, whirling fountain features, thousands of seasonal plants, and a bounty of trees with icicles and fountain-inspired glass ornaments fill the Conservatory. Outside, a magical world awaits. From the Italian Water Garden illuminated with a 20-foot tree form, to a maple tree with its roots aglow near the Meadow Boardwalk, to the colorful fountains of the Open Air Theatre, there is holiday magic everywhere!

Pre-purchase tickets for the 3:30 PM admittance ($27.00) on line at tickets.longwoodgardens.org.

This is a rain or shine event because tickets must be pre-purchased. We will go out somewhere for dinner afterwards. This outing is run in conjunction with Sundance, Greater Lehigh Valley Gay Friends Social Network, and Gay Meetup in Philly. Drivers, please contact Ben (if from PA/NJ) or Henry (if from NYC area) if you have a car for carpooling and let them know where you will be leaving from. If you need a ride, please let one of them know and they will try to put you in touch with a driver if available.

I want to bring my partner. Does this mean he has to sign up himself? I'd rather purchase two tickets for the both of us. Please respond ASAP. Thanks.

I understand tickets for 3:30 are sold out. If you still need to purchase your ticket, get it for 3:00 or 4:00. It is not a guided tour, so once you're in, you're in.

We'll be going to the Kennet brewing company for dinner afterwards for those who want to join us. Some of us want to watch the Eagles game which starts at 8:25 so will be able to do from there. Place gets good reviews for their food and atmosphere and reasonably priced.
