Eastertide in the Gardens

Hop into the Gardens! The beauty of spring at the Gardens sets the stage for this fun-filled family event. Children and families may follow a map of the Gardens’ paths to gather eggs at designated “egg stations” and enjoy contests, games and vendors on the Great Lawn.

All guests – members and not-yet-members – are encouraged to purchase online tickets in advance to this often sold-out event. Oak Circle Gardens members may select this spring event to receive eight guest passes.

TICKETS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE UNLESS EVENT IS CANCELLED BY THE ELIZABETHAN GARDENS. If inclement weather or other conditions prevent the event from occurring, a notice will be sent out to all anticipated guests by 9am.
