The Best Holiday Lights in Arkansas

Holiday Lights at Garvan Woodland Gardens

Holiday Lights are back at Garvan Woodland Gardens, and 2022's version is the best yet! 20 acres of the Gardens come alive each night with over 5 million lights incorporated into animation, topiaries, music, and family fun. Some of our favorite displays are the new under-the-sea aquarium, "ice dandelions" blowing in the wind, Rodrick the Sea Serpent, and the frog pond. "James the Train," a fully animated life-sized train engine is a traditional favorite.

The Garden of the Pine Wind is once again adorned in ethereal blue and white lights; the 50-foot tall Rose Tree comes alive with a 12-minute music and lights show; and watch as elves fill Santa's sleigh with gifts! The Chipmunk Cafe will even be open for food and beverages.

You can visit Garvan Gardens every night through New Year's Eve (closed Thanksgiving and Christmas days). Gates open at 4pm, and tickets MUST be purchased in advance this year. No tickets will be sold at the gardens in 2022. If you're staying with us on a weekend, you can expect large crowds. Admission fees are $20 per adult and must be purchased in advance. For those unable to walk long distances, golf cart rides are available for an additional $20 per person, first come first served.

Reserve a 2-night mid-week stay at Tiffany's and receive 2 complimentary tickets to Garvan's Holiday Lights. Our Holiday Lights Special includes 2 nights in the room of your choice, breakfast at Tiffany's each morning, and tickets to spend an evening strolling through the winter wonderland of Holiday Lights.

Garvan Gardens isn't the only place to see holiday lights in Hot Springs. Historic Bathhouse Row in Hot Springs National Park has light displays in Arlington Park as well as Wheatley Plaza, and be sure to visit the Arlington Hotel's Gingerbread House. This 11-foot tall confectionery creation has adorned the hotel's lobby each holiday season for nearly 40 years! Another fun light display can be found at Mid-America Science Museum's Dino-Lites. Visit the museum on Fridays and Saturdays from 5-7pm to view 18 decorated dinosaurs on the Dino-Trek.

Ladies, have your husbands abandoned you for the "deer woods"?? Grab your bestie and reserve our Girls Getaway package. You'll enjoy 2 nights at Tiffany's, 50-minute Swedish massage and calming facial for 2 at Nuyu Rejuvenation Spa, and 2 tickets to to Garvan Woodland Gardens. Don't forget to spend some time Christmas shopping in downtown Hot Springs while you're here!

We know the holidays can get busy, so be sure to reserve some time for yourself before your calendar gets filled! A festive escape to Tiffany's B&B is just what you need to rest and relax in the middle of this busy season.
