For the second consecutive year, Dazzling Nights Pittsburgh has once again left us awestruck. Last night, Macaroni KID publishers had the exclusive opportunity to indulge in a sneak peek at this hidden gem hosted within the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden. This enchanting experience was nothing short of magical, featuring a myriad of illuminated wonders that truly brought the holiday spirit to life. If you haven't been to the Pittsburgh Botanic Gardens yet, it's a relatively new space encompassing 65 acres of developed land with an additional 400 acres beyond the public space, providing the perfect canvas for this dazzling showcase!
Macaroni KID Pittsburgh would like to thank Dazzling Nights for hosting us for such a magical evening!
Our evening started in the rustic Event Barn where not only did Dazzling Nights Pittsburgh offer a visual feast, but it also catered to the senses with sweet treats and refreshments from Pittsburgh Mobile Bars. Starting Friday, available for purchase, guests can savor a variety of hot chocolate flavors, enjoy two draft beers, indulge in mocktails and hot cider, and treat themselves to delightful sugar cookies.
As we started our journey through the Botanic Gardens, we were in constant awe that the light displays were completely different from the year before. One of the most delightful aspects of this immersive walking attraction is the element of surprise. As you navigate through each enchanting section, the beauty lies in the fact that the next installation remains hidden in anticipation, concealed from your immediate view. The experience is a seamless journey of discovery, where each turn reveals a new, captivating spectacle that you couldn't have foreseen, adding an extra layer of wonder and excitement to the entire adventure. While the atmosphere was nothing short of enchanting, we're only going to give you a few spoilers, and you'll just have to see the rest for yourself!
