Holidays at Filoli is sure to delight, dripping with festive finery and sparkling with garden lights every day and night! Filoli, a vibrant landscape of the Bay Area, is located south of San Francisco in Woodside, California. The estate boasts 654 acres of beauty nestled along the slopes of California’s coastal range. The property is considered one of the finest remaining country estates of the 20th century, featuring a 54,000+ square-foot Georgian revival-style mansion and 16 acres of exquisite English Renaissance gardens. From November 20, 2021- January 2, 2022 Filoli’s historic House and Garden shines with glittering lights and decor, festive experiences, and holiday merriment for all.
In the Garden during Holidays at Filoli visitors can find dazzling light displays, including a river of lights, a Yew tree rainbow, and other vibrant installations that are sure to inspire. Lights are on during daytime and evening admission. In the daylight visitors can experience the Garden at peak fall color illuminated by twinkling lights and the winter sun. As the sun sets cozy fire pits and holiday libations beckon on the Woodland Garden Court.
In the House, new sounds and scents will accompany festive décor to bring Holidays at Filoli to life; more than 20 decorated trees will be on display. Experience the grand Bourn-era Dining Room complete with piano music and lively discussion, and reminisce in the Roth-era Family Room as classic Christmas hits and vintage commercials play on the 1960’s Zenith television.
