- Colorful light sculptures on trees and bushes
- Winter decorations with pine cones, stars, carved wooden figures
- Unforgettable photo opportunities at every turn

Beelitz — the asparagus city with a light scene
Beelitz is a small town with around 12,000 inhabitants in the Potsdam-Mittelmark district, about 35 km south of Berlin and 25 km south of Potsdam. The town is primarily famous for its asparagus cultivation — Beelitz is the most important German asparagus region, and the annual Beelitz Asparagus Festival attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors in May/June. In winter, the Lichterzauber takes over the tourist significance of the Asparagus Festival.
Beelitz-Heilstätten as a sister event
Those who visit the Lichterzauber should also consider the nearby Beelitz-Heilstätten — one of the largest former sanatoriums in Germany, now a lost-place icon and open-air venue. In December 2026, the Christmas market in the Heilstätten (December 12–13, 2026) will take place there — a perfect weekend program for the Advent season.
