To bring you up to speed, Bloedel Conservatory is a domed structure that houses a lush paradise with more than 120 free-flying exotic birds, 500 exotic plants, and flowers that thrive within its temperature-controlled environment.
At this event you'll also experience the area with vibrant lights, music, and even a holiday scavenger hunt, searching for hidden penguins in the arctic oasis. There will even be a holiday light display produced by MK Illumination.
