Longwood Gardens – To See the $90 Million Refurbished Light Show!!
Saturday, August 5th
Light Show at 9:15 p.m.
Kennett Square, PA
Enter Longwood at any time
What can we say!! The BRAND NEW and MOST SPECTACULAR light & fountain show ever!! This Longwood Gardens feature has been closed for 2-1/2 years – and now it’s finished and open!! The show includes 30 new propane-laced flame jets and brand new jets of water that SPIN! There are basket-weave fountain displays -- never seen before in the world and designed just for Longwood Gardens!! This amazing feature opens on Memorial Day weekend so if you haven’t seen it by August, be sure to join us.
Here’s the scoop: Cost is $23 for adults, students & seniors (62+) $20, youths 5 to 18 $12 and under 5 free. You need to order TIMED ENTRY TICKETS -- there are 300 tickets available for each half hour so you can decide when you want to enter. We are going to see the light show at 9:15 -- the only one with LIGHTS since it is the only one in darkness! (Other fountain shows are at 11, 1, 3, 5, and 7 p.m.) To order your own tickets (a must for MLSC’ers!), either order online at www.longwoodgardens.org OR by phone at 610-388-1000 BUT there is a $6 fee per order (not per ticket so if you are ordering for 2 or more, the $6 fee isn’t so bad).
At the present time, we do not have any plans for dinner, so you can either go to a restaurant inside Longwood, or go to ones nearby. Do your research!
Also, we do NOT have a leader for this event (see the following article!) so you will need to check the August newsletter OR read the email blasts about an update!
AND, we cannot tell you about a meeting place to gather beforehand so we can meet as a group.
This is a SUPER-DUPER SPECTACULAR, for sure, so we wanted to let you know as soon as possible about our plans!!
