Friday Night Happy Hour
@ The Market at Liberty Place
Glittering fireworks and colorful fountains light up the night sky and dance to exciting music on select evenings in the midst of our Gardens' lush, natural beauty.
Don't miss any of these exciting musical programs:
Rachmaninoff Power and Passion—August 30
This moving program spotlights the famed Russian composer’s Second Symphony.
Ladies & Gentlemen . . . The Beatles—September 13
Don't miss this show featuring music by one of the most popular and influential music groups of all time. The show opens with Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, followed by the lyrical Penny Lane and the driving anthem, Help. The melodic Here Comes the Sun melds into the title song of the 1964 album, A Hard Day’s Night, followed by We Can Work It Out. The show continues with I Want to Hold Your Hand, followed by Something, Lady Madonna, and the lilting ballad Norwegian Wood. Let It Be and the moving The Long and Winding Road create a memorable finale.
Guests may reserve a space in the viewing area after 3:00 pm. For the best viewing experience, guests are encouraged to bring a lightweight folding chair. Rental chairs can be purchased for $5 each (while supplies last). In our efforts to create the best Fireworks & Fountains experience for all attendees, BLANKETS WILL NOT BE PERMITTED.
In the event of inclement weather, every effort will be made to set off Fireworks as scheduled—however, two rain dates are scheduled for each display. The decision to cancel the show is made 15 minutes prior to show time.
End the summer in style with four days of Labor Day Weekend festivities. We do this every year and we'd love to see you all again. Spend some time wine tasting in the cellar, then relax on our patio and grounds with live musicians, wines and slushies by the glass from the outdoor wine bar and delicious foods from our food vendors and food trucks. No reservations required. Tasting are $10 for this event.
