Pal-entine’s Party

Celebrate friendship and connection in a memorable way at the Pal-entine’s Party — with sips, bites, and lights all in one place — for family/friend groups 21+ at the Houston Botanic Garden.

The evening begins at 5:30 p.m. with complimentary featured tastings — in a commemorative cup — of themed cocktails and beer from our partners Bamboo Bay Rum Company, Old Humble Distilling, and Saint Arnold Brewing Company. Choose a memento from one of the festive crafting stations — pressed flower bookmarks, paper flower bouquets, and doily Valentine’s. You will also enjoy live music from DJ DelSur and have the opportunity to snap fun photos in front of our themed backdrop. Light bites, sweet treats, and more will be available to purchase from the Pal-entine’s Party market, as well.

Then enter the Radiant Nature trail and fall in love with more than 50 large-scale Chinese lantern installations as you take the mile-long stroll through the Garden’s Global Collection, Culinary Garden, and natural ecosystems. A friends night out doesn’t get more Instagrammable than this!

Tickets to the Pal-entine’s Party include a commemorative cup for complimentary tastings, a take-home craft, entry to Radiant Nature, and on-site parking. Individual adult tickets are available at two price points, depending on your preferred parking option: $75 each with on-site parking, or $68 each if using the off-site park & ride shuttle from METRO’s Monroe Park & Ride lot. Garden members receive a $3 discount on their Radiant Nature tickets.
