Illuminate Jacarandas

The enchanting blossoming Jacaranda tree performance, usually only visible by day, will now be an evening spectacular!

The trees and blossoms are gorgeous to ponder and be with during the day, and for the second year in a row, all the Jacaranda trees that live in See Park, will be illuminated in all their blossoming glory. It’s going to be stunning … perhaps even uplifting … definitely worth being a part of.

Visit See Park in the evenings (after dusk), bring a picnic blanket and plan to stay around, to soak up the wonderous atmosphere.

It’ll be bewdifullll!

Event Date
