A Garden Holiday at Cleveland Botanical Garden

It’s the most wonderful time of the year at the Cleveland Botanical Garden!

Join us for A Garden Holiday Saturday, November 20th through Sunday, January 2nd.

Kick-off the season with festive holiday plants and beautifully decorated trees in our gardens. Be reminded of holiday traditions filled with flora that adorn our home, the herbs, and spices that fill our kitchens, or the fruits and vegetables that we feast on.

Children (and the young at heart) will enjoy special play areas both indoors and out, complete with seasonal crafts, games, indoor curling, and more.

On weekends and every day between Dec. 20 – Dec 31, outdoor activities may include hot cocoa storytime, marshmallow roasting, and community crafts. Be sure to get a picture in front of our stunning 16-foot-tall tree, with handcrafted decorations by a local artisan!
