The Winter Dreams light sculpture show is coming to Israel

This winter, starting in December, Jerusalem’s botanical garden will turn into a European market full of lights, fragrances, flavors and experiences, in the center of which the garden will be illuminated by the light sculptures largest in the world.

The winter and the cold air are the perfect conditions to turn the garden into a unique and special light show that will be illuminated by about a million LED bulbs in different colors.

After dark, the garden opens to visitors who come to see dozens of illuminated displays of impressive sizes up to 5 meters high and 8 meters long. The sculptures​​​​​​​​were built with 3D technology and will be placed in a special route about a kilometer long, crossing an area of ​​about 14 forts, including a dragon, a unicorn, a whale, a lion, a golden horse and the carriage of the princess from the legends, a tree of love, a rhinoceros, a shining star and many others. In addition to the dozens of large statues, dozens of illuminated elements designed and made especially for the botanical garden by Mk Illumination factories in Europe will be placed throughout the garden.

The exhibition is coming to Jerusalem after it has already been held in other places in the world such as New York, Germany, Poland, Mexico, Denmark, England and Italy. The event is being held at the Givat Ram University Botanical Garden initiative in Jerusalem with the support of the Jerusalem and Israel Ministry of Tradition, the Jerusalem Municipality and the Jerusalem Development Authority.

At the winter market there will be stalls with chefs Omer Miller, Avi Biton, Tomer Agai and Tamara Aharoni. Guests and visitors to the garden will be treated to special winter food and cooking that you won’t want to miss. The entire exhibition was created from environmentally friendly materials and thinking about preserving the planet and a green environment.

This year we decided to go to the biggest winter event in the country on a huge and impressive light show never seen before in Israel. To this end, we collaborated with the leading company in Europe in the field, which brought us impressive and large displays that give the feeling of foreigners to the country at the highest level.
