Of the thousands of flowering plants in the Arboretum, only one, the lilac, is singled out each year for a daylong celebration. Tours of the lilacs and other special collections, music, picnicking (allowed on this special day only), and family activities make for a memorable day. Be a part of this beloved Boston tradition.
The Arboretum is open as usual from dawn to dusk; refreshments and activities available from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
