The Enchanted Garden

Brisbane’s favourite Christmas light experience, The Enchanted Garden, is back, transforming Roma Street Parkland into an illuminated wonderland from November 20 to December 19, 2026. 

This year, The Enchanted Garden takes flight with Night Flight, a brand-new theme inspired by the fascinating creatures that come alive after dark, promising a magical festive adventure for all ages.

Spanning more than 22,000sqm of lush parklands, this year's experience will feature seven immersive zones filled with spectacular light installations, soaring soundscapes and imaginative displays inspired by native Australian wildlife. 

Look out for illuminated interpretations of tawny frogmouths, sugar gliders and duskhawker dragonflies as they bring the park's hidden aerial world to life.

Leading the adventure are aviators Ivy and Bert, inspired by Queensland aviation pioneers Ivy Pearce and Bert Hinkler. Visitors can follow their illuminated journey through a night filled with magical discoveries, dazzling displays and plenty of festive surprises.

With even more lights illuminating the gardens this year, there's plenty to explore, whether you're making Christmas memories with the kids, catching up with friends or planning a festive date night.

There will also be food trucks to enjoy throughout the experience, while special Up Late sessions offer a chance to soak up the magic after dark.

Tickets start from just $7.50 for children and $9.50 for adults, with family passes available from $32. Bookings are essential.
