4:30pm to 8:00pm ET

Inaugurated in 2015, the Untermyer Gardens Conservancy's Grand Holiday Illumination has quickly become a Yonkers tradition, and thousands of visitors come to enjoy the spectacle. Come for FREE and see the Walled Garden lit with more than 100,000 lights and listen to holiday music from many traditions.
Everything is free and no tickets or reservations are required. It's a magical experience, for all ages!
Lots of volunteers are needed to count visitors and serve cocoa. Traditionally, families and community and religious groups volunteer, but there is always room for individuals as well. 4 volunteers are needed for each of the two 2 hour shifts each day. Sign up on the website untermyergardens.org
Open every evening from 4:30-8 pm
