On Friday, May 15th, Botanica, The Wichita Gardens transforms into a magical evening of music and florals. The Wichita Symphony partners with Botanica for an open-air evening where you can wander through the gardens while live ensembles are literally tucked into the landscape around you. Florals in bloom, music in the air, a drink in your hand – does it get better?
Here’s what to expect at Symphony in the Gardens:
- Stroll through Botanica at your own pace while live musical ensembles are nestled throughout the gardens
- Savory hors d’oeuvres and drinks in hand as you take it all in
- A full orchestra performance on the lawn as the sun sets
- A spectacular fireworks finale to close out the night under the open sky
- An atmosphere that’s elegant, relaxed, and genuinely fun – perfect for a date night or girls’ night out
As the evening winds down, everyone gathers on the lawn for a twilight orchestra concert that builds to that unforgettable fireworks display. It’s the kind of night you’ll still be talking about the next morning.
