Seasonal Exhibitions

Every year, Meijer Gardens features two of its largest exhibitions, Foremost's Butterflies Are Blooming, sponsored by Foremost Insurance Group, and Christmas and Holiday Traditions Around the World.

Butterflies - Foremost's Butterflies Are Blooming began in 1995 and is open every year, March 1 through April 30. It is the largest temporary butterfly exhibit in the United States with more than 6,000 tropical butterflies from Central and South America and Asia on display in the Lena Meijer Conservatory. This is Meijer Gardens' largest exhibit with more than 150,000 visitors annually.

Christmas and Holiday Traditions Around the World - Started in 1995 as an effort to share how Christmas is celebrated around the world, every November through the first week of January, Meijer Gardens embraces the decorations, music and food of more than 40 countries and cultures and 300,000 lights twinkling indoors and out. Family activities, carriage rides and holiday entertainment take place during weekends and Tuesday nights. The exhibit has grown to become a holiday tradition with more than 75,000 guests visiting from around the country every year.
