Myrtle Beach offers a lot of great entertainment options for the Christmas season, but one of our favorites has long been the Nights of a Thousand Candles at Brookgreen Gardens. Each year the over the weekends preceeding Christmas, Brookgreen Gardens, which is generally recognized as one of the most beautiful places in the country, set the walkways and garden paths aglow with literally thousands of candles and luminaries as musicians perform and carolers sing Christmas classics.
This year's events are held on December 5 & 6, December 12 & 13 and December 18, 19 & 20, and each of these seven nights will feature entertainment by Rocky Fretz on piano, Vocal Edition, Bill Oberst, Jr. in Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, hand bell choirs and much more.
Tickets will be on sale from October 1 through November 30, 2008, and will be available at Brookgreen’s Admission Plaza and Lowcountry Information Center or by phone at (843) 235-6016. There will be a $1 processing fee to mail tickets. Advance adult tickets are $12. In December, adult tickets are $15 and child tickets (ages 6-12) are $6. All children ages five and under are free.
