✨A Magical Winter Night at Franklin Park Conservatory Aglow in Columbus🎄🌟 Step into an enchanting holiday fantasy as the Franklin Park Conservatory transforms into a wonderland of shimmering lights and festive cheer during the Conservatory Aglow! Wander glittering pathways, catch glowing art installations, and warm up with kettle-popped corn, hot chocolate, mulled hot cider, or a cup of bubble tea 🧋 👍 Tips: · The event runs nightly from 5-9 PM (till 10 PM Fri & Sat). 🌝 · Layer up—it can get chilly in the outdoor sections, but indoor areas stay cozy. ☃️ #Columbus #HolidayLights #FranklinParkConservatory #WinterMagic #Aglow2025
