Garden Glow installations are dispersed throughout Missouri Botanical Garden for the annual holiday event that runs Nov. 17-Jan.1 nightly. Walking is the primary means of viewing the exhibit.

It is just over one mile of walking to experience every element of Glow, though visitors are welcome to customize what they view on the path. Paths are one way. Visitors may repeat the walk as many times as they like. Benches will be available along the path. For safety reasons trams will not be in operation.

Pathways and ramps are ADA-compliant and can accommodate all single-seat wheelchairs, scooters, and powerchairs up to 35″ wide.

Glow inquiries and ticket purchasing call (314) 678-7442.

Hours are daily, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., $5 per person (ages 3 and up), or free for Garden members and their children. It is also included with all Garden Glow evening admissions.
