About this Event

Spring is here, and it's time to experience Green-Wood’s stunning transformation! The Cemetery bursts into a bouquet of colors as hundreds of flowering trees and plants come to life in a dazzling display. With nearly 8,000 trees, Green-Wood is a Level III accredited Arboretum, one of only five cemeteries in the U.S. to be honored with the designation. Don’t miss out; this breathtaking spectacle only lasts for a few weeks. Lace up your walking shoes, grab your camera, and get ready to snap away during this unforgettable exploration of vibrant blooms and lush greenery.

Please note that if only 1 ticket shows as available during the purchase process that is the last ticket available.
