The Nightgarden

Producer: Kilburn Live • Venue: Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden • Operations: EPIC Entertainment Group • Photos: Sharon Sipple

The Nightgarden was a concept we co-created in 2018 and is now in its fifth year of operation. It has been described as “a Miami tradition.” We transformed one of the world's most spectacular botanic gardens into a multisensory feast of interactive art and entertainment.

One popular feature is an interactive talking tree designed by Max Painter that performs comedy cabaret with the audience. Archie notably went viral for rapping with Kanye West.

The Nightgarden has gone on to become a huge success, featured in Vogue, Time Out, Yahoo and the Miami Herald. It has toured internationally, including Riyadh Season, where Archie was again a firm favourite with the tens of thousands of guests who attended.

As with so many of our works, The Nightgarden was a brand we helped develop from scratch into a critical and commercial success.

We are looking forward to many more years of this experience playing to record audiences in Miami. We are currently creating next-generation concepts that will redefine what is possible in outdoor walk-through experiences.

If the commercial opportunity of next-generation interactive nighttime experiences is of interest to your organisation, please get in touch.
