Lumagination 2021

Lumagination 2021 transforms the Buffalo Botanical Gardens into a magical world with state-of-the-art lighting and sound technology.

Visitors to the Buffalo and Erie County Botanical Gardens will enjoy a feast for the eyes at Lumagination 2021. Colorful special-effects, pieces of art, waterfalls, and thematic creations transform the familiar botanical gardens into something entirely different. The gardens are located at 2655 South Park Avenue in Buffalo, New York.

The visionary tour through the magical world of Lumagination takes guests on a tour of the greenhouses, each with their own theme enhanced by light and sound. This year’s particular installment provides an aquatic “under-the-sea” experience. Oversized coral will decorate the Main Palm Dome to give visitors the feeling of walking the sea floor, as fish are projected onto the ceiling above. The Aquatic Garden and Asia Rainforest will be laced with paper jellyfish and intricate lighting designs, while glow-in-the-dark plankton will illuminate the Desert Room. Other greenhouses display beautiful glass coral sculptures, optical rugs, and “sea aliens.” The Wegmans Family will offer interactive fun for children of all ages.

Lumagination 2021 features the innovative work of undergraduate students and professors at the University at Buffalo School of Theatre and Dance. Their greenhouse will be packed with state-of-the-art technology, elaborate sculptures, and theatrical designs to deliver a dramatic show.
