Ghouls in The Gardens

A night of boozy spirits and spooky spirits in the Gardens! Spooky season has arrived at Rockledge Gardens! Join us October 23rd + 30th for an evening in the gardens filled with food, drinks, movies, live music, and more. Sip specialty themed spirits as you wander through our horror-culture haunted greenhouse, then grab a bite from food trucks or on-site cafe, Garden Party, and picnic on the lawn while a cult classic scary movie plays on the big screen. As the night goes on, get a tarot card reading, shop with local spooky vendors, enter our costume contest, and dance the monster mash to live music from local bands and DJs. Plus so much more — it's a scary good time! Included with admission ticket: • Entrance into the ghoulish gardens after hours • Live music from DJ Judge (23rd) and Wax Phantom (30th) • Classic scary film on the lawn (decided by YOU, the week prior to the event) • Halloween costume contest + performance • Horror-culture Trail: haunted greenhouse Additional items available for purchase: • Shopping with local spooky vendors and artisans • Food from Garden Party, Mad Utter, and other local trucks • Beer, wine, hard seltzers, and other themed drink options • Boutique, Market, and garden center merchandise All 5 acres of Rockledge Gardens will be open for the event. Wander the nursery to find 3 bar locations serving beer, wine, and specialty cocktails, food trucks (vegetarian and gluten-free options available), and mystical goods and services from some of your favorite local vendors. This event is intended for guests 18 and older due to the nature of the activities, with alcohol service restricted to 21 and up. We do not recommend attendance for anyone under 18. Outside food and drinks are not permitted. Reservations are highly encouraged in advance — this is one of our most popular annual events and tends to sell out. Day-of tickets, if still available, will be sold at the gate for $25, higher than the discounted online price. Secure your ticket early to guarantee your spot! • 10/23 - Music by DJ Judge and food trucks by Bruja's Table + Chee Hoo's Hawaiian BBQ • 10/30 - Music by Wax Phantom and food trucks by Bruja's Table + Nunzi Wood Fired Pizza • The movie choice will be a public vote by YOU on our Instagram, @rockledgegardens, the week of the event, so follow us and don't forget to vote!
