Fall Fireside at Tyler Arboretum
Kick back and enjoy a cozy fall evening at Tyler Arboretum’s Fall Fireside.
Enjoy dinner from local food trucks, sip warm or seasonal drinks, and treat yourself to sweet fall favorites. Stop by nature education tables, join story time and light craft activities with the kids, and play lawn games while the crisp air and colorful leaves set the scene. Take a walk through the gardens or stroll along nearby trails, then gather around the fire pits for marshmallows as the day winds down. It’s a relaxed, festive night outdoors — perfect for spending time with family and friends and savoring the spirit of fall.
Free for Tyler Members; non-members pay general admission.
