Spirits in the Gardens will be returning to Reiman Gardens in Ames in the very near future! The annual event is set for October 11th through the 13th of 2024. Spirits in the Gardens is a popular Halloween event that features more than 1,000 Jack-O-Lanterns that have been hand-carved by volunteers. All of the Jack-O-Lanterns are lit-up and put on display at Reiman Gardens, and guests can walk through the outdoor display at night and admire them.
