Events Calendar

Our knowledgeable guides will design a tour around the interests of the attendees. Every tour is different so come back as many times as you’d like.

Opening on May 26, 2023–just in time for Memorial Day Weekend! 

Join us every Tuesday for Bloomin' Bubbles, when we transform the Azalea Meadow into a magical bubble party!

Moonlight & Roses, the Arboretum’s annual fundraising gala, has been a landmark social event in the Philadelphia region for four decades. In addition to paying homage to our 2023 honorees, this year’s event will also celebrate the Arboretum’s 90th anniversary as a public garden. Proceeds directly support the Morris Arboretum's work as a renowned public botanic garden and as a center for plant-science research and educational programming for all ages.

Do you love roses, but are reluctant to grow them because you think that they are too difficult or fussy? Learn how to select, plant, and care for roses through a practical month-to month plan, then take a stroll through the Philadelphia Rose Society's Annual Rose Display.

Join knowledgeable guides for a walking tour highlighting garden features not often discovered on an average visit.

Learn about the extravagant and elegant ways households of means entertained during the late 1800s from Becky Diamond, author of the forthcoming The Gilded Age Cookbook. Then get a first-hand look at the lavish dishware and china used by the Arboretum’s own Lydia Morris.

In celebration of our newest exhibition, Exuberant Blooms: A Pop-Up Garden, we are pleased to invite you to our Member Preview Night. Experience the exhibition during exclusive members-only evening admission hours.
