National Garden Festival

The National Garden Festival is a five-week-long garden party!


With 15 garden walks and tours (including America’s largest – Garden Walk Buffalo), bus tours, weekday Open Gardens, speakers, workshops and a Front Yard Garden Competition, this festival of 1,000 gardens has something for anyone with – or without – a green thumb!


Join us for our 4th annual festival, June 21 to August 4, 2013!

National Garden Festival

Buffalo has always been a city with a botanical bent. From calling in Frederick Law Olmsted - the biggest gun in American landscape architecture history - to design the city's parks and parkways in the 19th century, to operating the National Garden Festival today, Buffalonians know how to make the most out of nature.
