RBG After Dark (19+)

Deep within the recesses of the historic Rock Garden, a hidden world reveals itself at twilight. For one evening, the garden transforms into the Enchanted Academy—a place of quiet discovery where curious apprentices are invited to wander, explore, and uncover the magic lingering just beneath the surface. Explore a series of whimsical subjects, uncover hidden moments, and follow your curiosity as the garden unfolds its secrets. With soft illumination, live music, and curated offerings throughout, the evening becomes a dreamlike experience of atmosphere, discovery, and subtle enchantment.
