PHANTASMA IN THE RAMBLE AND GLOW PARTY

Phantasma will create a world of wonder for all ages on the nights of Oct. 9 and 10. This multi-sensory installation is free to join, but visitors are asked to reserve your spot at your preferred time.

During your dedicated hour-long experience, enjoy a mesmerizing laser light show and dance along with a silent disco surrounded by the beauty of the Lower Ramble. Three DJs curated by Her Set Her Sound will be on three different channels for you to choose a variety of sounds to dance to while the lights move around you. Headphones are provided, but not necessary to enjoy the light show and music.

Food and drink will be available for purchase at the Lower Ramble entrance on West Ave. The Ramble is fully accessible and all ages are invited to join.

Come back on Oct. 11 for another Phantasmic experience with a Glow Party in the newly completed Upper Ramble! Free to attend and all ages from 7-10 p. m.
