Fireworks and Fountains will illuminate the night sky once again at Longwood Gardens, with six awe-inspiring shows.

After a two-year revitalization, the Main Fountain Garden returns with new dynamic fountain features, including jets that propel water as high as 175 feet, new lighting features that can create an infinite number of color combinations, and a more-immersive garden experience.
