Necklace of Lights Locale Celebrates Autumn Lights Festival in Oakland
If you’ve never seen the Necklace of Lights that wraps around Lake Merritt, casting a soft glow at night, why not visit during a special festival when there are even more lights to enjoy? Imagine several acres of gardens filled with lanterns, carved and lit gourds, ponds glowing from submerged bubbles, and electric fireflies flickering in the trees; all created by local Bay Area artists. The Gardens at Lake Merritt will be filled with these and other surprises during Autumn Lights Festival on Saturday, October 13, 2012 from 6-10 p.m. Location: 666 Bellevue Ave., Oakland, Calif.

Friday, Oct. 12, 7-10 p.m., Adults 21+. Pre-sale only at Brown Paper Tickets: fairylandmagiclantern.bpt.me
