Bloedel Conservatory is getting into the holiday spirit with Enchanted Nights.
 
Set among the tropical plants and company of 200 exotic birds, Enchanted Nights is a miniature world of artisan fairy and sprite villages with illuminated landscapes, holiday music and live entertainment. It runs daily from December 4 to January 3 (closed December 25), 4 – 9 pm. 
 
Several local artists - Benjamin Kikkert of New-Small & Sterling Studio Galss, Melissa Hume of Dirty Clay Studios, Christopher Moreno of 365 Productions, Corey Cote and the Enchanted Forest Collective - are brining the miniature fairly life to life. 

“Bloedel Conservatory is a fantastic setting in which to work with magic and whimsy so we’re very pleased to have local artists involved in Vancouver’s newest holiday event,” said Vancouver Park Board Vice Chair Sarah Kirby-Yung.
 
The fun continues outside at Queen Elizabeth Park plaza, the highest point in the city, with holiday lights, pony rides and tasty treats.
 
Tickets are $8.50 for adults, $6.50 for seniors and youth, $5.25 for children and $19 for families. Children three and under are free. Advance tickets can be purchased at VanDusen Garden and online.
 
And anyone buying tickets to Festival of Lights at VanDusen Garden, receives free entry to Enchanted Nights—two events for the price of one! The Park Board is also offereing a special deal to Bright Night Christmas Train attendees who receive two for one coupons to Enchanted Nights.
 
Free parking at Bloedel is available at the top lot Queen Elizabeth Park. More information about the event can be found at Vancouver.ca/EnchantedNights.
