Oct 27, 2024

BRONX, N.Y. – The New York Botanical Garden has been magically transformed with Disney Tim Burton’s “The Nightmare Before Christmas” Light Trail.

Now through Nov. 30, individuals can join Jack Skellington, Sally, and Zero on a mystical walk as their favorite scenes, characters, and songs from the extraordinary film come to life. New York’s most treasured garden will be a backdrop of botanical beauty as art from the classic movie illuminates the trail.

The Light Trail can take 45 minutes to an hour to complete and is appropriate for all ages. Once you enter, you are free to explore the one-way path, but once you leave, you cannot re-enter. Plan your attire accordingly, as it is an on-foot outdoor experience.

The trail is also paved and stroller-friendly, so visitors are encouraged to bring strollers for children and mobility devices as needed.

Parking will be limited and can be purchased for $22 at The New York Botanical Garden main entrance (2900 Southern Blvd, Bronx) and the NYBG Parking Garage (401 Bedford Park Blvd).

Tickets are timed entry. Individuals must arrive at their selected time slot. There will be no late entry, refunds, or exchanges.

Tickets for children 12 and under are $39, and tickets for adults 13 and up start at $49.

Individuals can purchase flex tickets starting at $55, which allows them to arrive anytime before 8:30 p.m. and start the Light Trail whenever they like.

Plan to arrive at least 15 minutes before your ticket time.

Tickets can be purchased here.
