The decorations were very cute and well presented, there were a few scattered events for children to participate in like a ‘pie eating contest’ and dance competition. The ‘Dino glow’ experience was nicely done. We certainly were not disappointed with our visit.” Google Review, September 28, 2020Stone Mountain Park’s Most Illuminated Fall of All!GLOW BY NIGHTGlow by Night is an immersive experience filled with lights, glow, and nighttime outdoor fun.
