Celebrate the holidays and marvel at how light transforms a magnificent landscape at Illumination: Tree Lights at The Morton Arboretum.

Exciting features and immersive installations in this festive experience will delight all ages along a one-mile path that is fully ADA compliant.

Warm up by a crackling fire and roast marshmallows for s’mores, stop in at the concession tent on Frost Hill for snacks and beverages, or sit down to a delicious meal at the Ginkgo Restaurant to view a laser light finale on Meadow Lake.

A temperature-activated, color-changing ceramic mug will be available for purchase on all Illumination dates.

The 2024 exhibition features 17 displays of lights and music that highlight the beauty of trees in winter.

A secluded glade is strung with fairy lights, kinetic LED tall grasses honor a Midwest native species, and trees light up with a hug. New this year, Celebration Circle is an interactive light display in The Gerard T. Donnelly Grand Garden featuring four sets of illuminated tree-shaped installations, each synced to the music of a different instrument.
