When the sun goes down…the tails start wagging! Select Wednesday evenings your four‑legged friends get their very own night to sniff, stroll and shine at Garden: After Dark. It’s the perfect yappy hour, grab a drink and pup cup (while supplies last) and hit the trails!

Experience Garden: After Dark, where the desert shines brighter, the trails glow with color and Desert Pulse creates a perfect nighttime escape.

Wander through the Garden’s 10 immersive light displays, each transforming the desert landscape into a glowing experience. As you follow the illuminated trails, vibrant colors and rhythmic light displays bring the desert to life in unexpected ways.

The signature feature, Desert Pulse, creates a mesmerizing atmosphere that turns the Garden into a radiant nighttime escape. Every installation offers a new perspective, inviting guests to pause, explore and experience the desert like never before. View the trail insert.
