Fast becoming a central Iowa holiday tradition!
Winter Wonderscape returns to Reiman Gardens for its third year with even more to see. Central Iowa's only walk-through holiday light show, Winter Wonderscape features an amazing variety of immersive lighted displays located throughout our entire 17-acre site. Brightly lit tunnels, colorful glowing cubes and orbs, giant disco balls twirling to laser lights, and an impressive fountain of lights are just a few of the attractions.
Winter Wonderscape's History at Reiman Gardens
Planning for Winter Wonderscape began in 2017, after the great success of Reiman Gardens' popular RG Express Holiday Train Display. Set to debut in 2020, this ambitious undertaking became even more challenging in the face of a global pandemic. Creativity and quick thinking by staff and volunteers allowed Reiman Gardens to safely offer Winter Wonderscape. We could not have predicted the overwhelming response the event would have in just its first year, with more than 11,000 visitors attending over the course of the show. This far exceeded our expectations, but even more gratifying were the comments we received from guests telling us how much they enjoyed the show and thanking us for creating this community event. Attendance grew to nearly 15,500 in 2021, and we expect that number to continue to increase as we add new, exciting elements to Winter Wonderscape.
