Chihuly Nights

Be mesmerised by dramatically lit glass sculptures at this evening event.

As the sun sets on an enchanting garden, discover soaring sculptures by the world’s most celebrated contemporary glass artist.

From the setting sun to the artwork's dramatic nighttime lighting, witness how the changing light lends new dimensions to the 15 playful, vibrant artworks on a journey through Adelaide Botanic Garden.

During your Chihuly Nights visit, explore the rainforest conservatory exhibition, In Full Colour: Dale Chihuly, where an additional collection of works can be found nestled in the lush botanical setting. Entry is only during the evening of your valid Chihuly Nights ticket from 6:45pm.

Head to the pavilion in the heart of the garden to enjoy live music and something delicious to eat and drink from award-winning caterers. 

You can check out the Evergreen Deli's Chihuly Nights menu here.

It’s a feast for the senses!

• The Garden closes at 5.30pm and all visitors will need to leave by this time. On Wednesday - Sunday nights, the Main Gate on North Terrace will re-open again at 6.45pm for Chihuly Nights.

  We highly recommend you get to the box office well before it opens at 6:45pm for the best chance of getting a ticket. 

  Walk up tickets are not guaranteed, and we highly recommend you pre-purchase for another evening, if possible, via Humanitix so you don’t miss out, especially as we are in our final weeks.
