Fall Festival

Fall into fun at the Knoxville Botanical Garden & Arboretum’s Annual Fall Festival!  Join us in LeConte Meadow, with the brilliant backdrop of the Great Smoky Mountains. 

Our annual Fall Festival celebrates the harvest season with music, hands-on crafts and activities, lawn games, hay rides, face painting, food, and many local artists and nonprofits. Our largest outreach event of the season, we welcome hundreds of local families to the grounds to honor our year of growing together.

The Garden’s Fall Plant Sale is a special part of this year’s Fall Festival event. Add fall favorite perennials, trees, and shrubs to your yard this fall while supporting the work of our nonprofit Garden.

Every purchase directly benefits our ongoing efforts to keep this beautiful landscape thriving and accessible to our community. Grow your garden by helping ours! The Garden Gift Shop will be open and ready with autumnal treasures and as always we hope you will enjoy the beauty of the grounds too.
