Festival of Fountains

Longwood Gardens is renowned for its exquisite gardens and conservatory — and for its extraordinary fountains. The astonishing fountain shows gather attention from far and wide, and are a favorite among visitors of all ages. Performances take place in the Main Fountain Garden by day, which become illuminated by night with the added spectacle of color and light. In a separate area, the Open Air Theatre comes alive with fountains set to music in five-minute shows that run daily (except on Tuesdays, when Longwood Gardens is closed). Lawn and bench seating are available throughout the Main Fountain Garden. Timed admission tickets required; fountains are free with admission.

Please note: Daytime fountain performances are not illuminated; however, evening performances after dusk are illuminated. Fountain performances may be canceled due to severe weather.
