Join us at the Botanical Gardens on Friday, November 28, and Saturday, November 29, to meet the one and only Santa Claus! Complete a festival scavenger hunt as you explore our beautiful Poinsettia Exhibit, the picture-perfect backdrop for your photos with Santa. Write your letters to Santa and be on your best behavior during your visit. Visits with Santa are included with admission.

This year, Santa will be visiting the Botanical Gardens on two different days at two different times. On November 28, visit Mr. C during Gardens After Dark from 5pm-9pm. Then, on November 29, Santa will return during the day from 10am-2pm.

Step into the warm embrace of our tropical conservatory, filled to the brim with brilliant poinsettias of all sizes and colors during our Poinsettia Exhibit. Allow the vibrant reds, magentas, pinks, yellows, and oranges to fill your heart with joy. This Western New York holiday tradition is sure to brighten your mood, and keep you warm, as you explore our carefully curated collection of pretty poinsettias.
