2026 Winterlights - At Newfields

ICelebrating 10 Years Winterlights presented by Bank of America is back and brighter than ever. This year, join us for a special season as we celebrate 10 years of this beloved holiday tradition in The Garden at Newfields. Nearly two million lights will dance beneath your feet and twinkle overhead, reaching the very tips of 100-year-old trees and lighting the way. To commemorate 10 years of winter magic, guests will be delighted by brand new displays and old favorites from over the years. New this year, experience moonGARDEN by Lucion—a custom shadow theater show inspired by the plants of the Madeline F. Elder Greenhouse. Returning from the very first year of Winterlights, see Playtime in Indy, a tree sculpture made entirely of colorful toys by artist Karl Unnasch. The undeniable display of wintertime wonder extends inside the historic Lilly House with Styled for the Season sponsored by LINNEA.
