The most popular event of the year at the garden, when fall colors are just starting to peak. Featuring food, music, crafts, and family fun.

Join in the celebration of fall at the 2016 Indian Summer Festival, Saturday and Sunday, October 8th & 9th from 10am-4pm each day in Springfield, IL.

You’ll recognize many aspects; music, food, vendors, children’s activities and reconnecting with friends—with some exciting additions you’re sure to enjoy.

Parents of young children will appreciate a change in the price structure this year, which allows free entry for children 5 and younger.
