About the event

Enjoy eclectic live music
You’ll be greeted by the shimmering strings of harpist Lisa Handman, and lured into the woods by the folk music of the Sweet Auburn Strings Band, then delighted by the smooth sounds of the four-piece jazz band, Bourbon Brothers. DJ Will and the Mad Hatter take over the Great Lawn with an Unbirthday Dance Party.

Enchanting entertainment
Watch and join the fun with Double Dutch Aerobics on the Great Lawn, or sit back and relax as the Huber Twins shake things up with ballet and hip-hop performances under Robinson Gazebo overlooking the White Rabbit.

Spill the tea, honey bee
Join a tea blending demo with the specialTEAS of Just Add Honey Tea Shop. Get the buzz on honeybees with a regional tasting and sensory experience led by Olivia M. Menard, Chief Executive Beekeeper at Brookfield Apiaries, and UGA Master Beekeeper.

Painting the roses red
Watch out for the Queen of Hearts in the Rose Garden as you join in a watercolors craft with artist Jennifer Chiles.

One door makes you larger. One door makes you small.
Shrink and grow when you visit the Garden’s own Tiny Door and walk through the Giant Tiny Door. Karen Anderson Singer, creator of Tiny Doors ATL, will be on hand to discuss the 10th anniversary of her creations, and she’ll have exclusive commemorative “doornaments” for sale only at Summer Party!

Eat me. Drink me.
Visit one (or ALL) of the Garden bars for a mocktail, or signature craft cocktails inspired by Alice’s Wonderland. Purchase fresh eats from bacon-wrapped brats and buttermilk chicken to braised short rib sandwiches, wood-fired pizzas and sweet and savory crepes from  Dulce & Sabrosa, Sunnyside Pizzeria, and Vanilla Crepes. Cool down with handcrafted gelato by Cremalosa, Italian ice by Kona Ice and an Atlanta favorite, King of Pops. Longleaf, the Garden’s full-service restaurant, will be open. Reservations strongly recommended. (Admission required to dine.)
