Discover SPARK at Longwood Gardens USA where ten thousands of biodegradable lights drift skyward, transforming the botanical garden into a luminous dreamscape. February 13 to March 8 2026, Friday to Sunday 19.00-22.00.

SPARK has received the Peer Award of Excellence at Lux Futurum in Shanghai. This honor celebrates the beauty of organic fireworks and envisions a future where East meets West.

To celebrate ten years as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Maison Ruinart in Reims, France opened its gardens for SPARK, inviting thousands of visitors into a constellation of light.

In Bali, Roosegaarde’s FIREFLY GARDEN revives fireflies through a 3-year breeding program. The film Return of the Fireflies, premiering this October, has gained international acclaim, winning Best Microfilm at Touchstone USA, Short Film Award at Bracciano Italy, Outstanding Achievement at Sundarban India, and Finalist at International Film Festival The Hague. It is also officially selected for festivals in Kyoto, Mexico, Indonesia, Sweden, and New York.

When was the last time you saw fireflies? In Bali, Roosegaarde spent three years nurturing their return. Once abundant across rice fields, their glow had nearly vanished. Through a collaboration with local Balinese and a dedicated breeding program in the private FiREFLY GARDEN, these luminous guardians have come back to life, shot under red light invisible to them.
