Boise Pride Hosting LGBTQ+ Night at Winter Garden aGlow

It's the most wonderful time of the year--or so the song goes, anyway--and festive festivities are just about everywhere.

Whether you like it or not, businesses are blasting Christmas music out of every store front, Santa is chillin' at the mall and there's an unparalleled pressure to buy gifts for just aboute very single person that has ever entered your life. We hope you got a holiday bonus.

Regardless of your stance on Christmas, Festivus, or the Winter Solstice--one thing is for certain: nobody is complaining about the Christmas lights.

There's something magical about the visuals that radiate from local Christmas attractions and homes. One of the most iconic, however, is tucked away in Southeast Boise next to the infamous Old Idaho Penitentiary.

Winter Garden aGlow, as it is affectionately known, is a Boise staple. It features over 600,000 lights that are strung through the Idaho Botanical Gardens.
