The Jardin des Plantes knows how to surprise us! Every year, it offers an astounding light show that delights both young and old as winter arrives. And 2025 will be no exception. From November 12, 2025, to January 18, 2026, the famous garden in the 5th arrondissement will shine a spotlight on The Lights of Nature, showcasing a delightful variety of illuminations. 


Natural Phenomena in the Spotlight

On land, in the sky, or under the sea, all natural light phenomena will shine in this new show at the Jardin des Plantes. It promises to be as fabulous as it is fun, with many animal, plant, and mineral species getting their own moment in the limelight. This experience has been thoughtfully designed with the National Museum of Natural History and Cosmo AV studio to allow you to stroll through an immersive journey that blends cutting-edge science and technology.


An Unmissable Annual Experience for Parisians

Last year, the Jardin des Plantes left both adults and children amazed with its dazzling experience, Jurassic Lights. This truly immersive journey took visitors back in time over 200 million years to encounter the species that roamed our planet during that era. Dinosaurs, giant sea reptiles… The monumental and illuminating sculptures created for the occasion provided the most unforgettable stroll. Ready to relive the experience?
