November 11–January 3

Since 2014, twelve glass-sided gazebos have welcomed thousands.

After twelve memorable years across the Arboretum’s 66 acres, the 12 Days of Christmas gazebos return for their final season. This year, the Arboretum invites you to gather beneath the lights and see them one last time.

Alongside them, the returning favorites that will light up the season for years to come: the Christmas Village and the festive halls of the historic DeGolyer House.
