Monstrous vibes meet crisp fall evenings at Night of 1,000 Jack-o'-Lanterns, where artist-carved pumpkins light your way through the Garden after dark. You'll find costumed entertainers and live carving demos along our paved path, as well as seasonal light fare and drinks for purchase. It's slightly sinister fun for all.
