Indian Nights 2026: Jardin d’Acclimatation lights up in the colors of the Taj Mahal

As winter sets in and the nights grow longer, the Jardin d’Acclimatation rekindles the magic. The historic park in the Bois de Boulogne is staging the fourth edition of its Lantern Festival, “Indian Nights”. After setting Chinese dragons crackling in 2023 and dinosaurs roaring in 2024, then offering visitors a one-way trip to Japan in 2025, it’s time for a journey to India, with around 2,000 lanterns immersing visitors in the land of the Maharajas.
