FAQs
In addition to the improvements we made last year, which included more food and beverage vendors and a less congested event layout, this year we have added a second live band and earlier food service.
Additionally, we are not distinguishing between “regular hours” and “event hours” as we have in years prior. In 2025, all guests will be asked to pay regular Garden admission regardless of when you arrive, and will be able to stay or return for the fireworks celebration at any time.
While the Garden is pet friendly the rest of the year, we ask that pets be left at home on July 3rd for the safety of themselves and our guests. Thank you for understanding!
No, outside food and drinks are not allowed at this event, with one exception:
- One quart-sized, clear, zip-locked bag per family, containing food necessary for children four and under, or for guests with specific dietary restrictions.
We have a number of amazing food and beverage vendors for you to choose from during the event! Empty water bottles are allowed. You will be asked to relinquish all other food and beverage items at our security bag check.
Thank You To Our Sponsors!
