The Brooklyn Botanic Garden offers a variety of public programs all year long. Tours, concerts, dance performances, and symposia are always on the roster, as well as special one-time events that feature elements of the Garden at their peak. Each spring BBG celebrates the flowering of the Japanese cherry trees with our annual Sakura Matsuri (Cherry Blossom Festival), and each fall is spiced up with our multicultural Chile Pepper Fiesta!
