What to Expect

  • 1.Arrive a bit early to park and stake out a good viewing spot around The Ann Arbor Aviary before the 6pm start time.
  • 2.This is an immersive light-art performance set among the birds, so keep your voice down and move slowly to avoid disturbing the inhabitants.
  • 3.Dress in layers since it’s outdoors and will get cooler after sunset, and plan to stay until the end around midnight.
  • 4.No flash photography and be mindful of restricted areas; use low-light camera settings on your phone to capture the moment without blasting the birds.
  • 5.If you’re chasing raffle prizes, bring card or cash and stay for the drawings—they’ll be announced during the evening as the event unfolds.
