✨ Magic Is Happening Behind the Scenes…

Our horticulture team is reimagining the Show Dome for fall! The Show Dome will be closed September 8–18 as they bring an entirely new world to life. And for now, what they’re creating remains a mystery… 👀

There’s still plenty to discover while the magic is happening! 🌴🌵 The Tropical and Desert domes remain open, and the Wisconsin Orchid Show & Sale takes over the lobby September 12–13.

Come back September 19 to uncover the new fall show. ✨

Regular admission rates apply.
