Visiting Tips for A Longwood Christmas

Timed admission limits the number of people in the Gardens, providing a better visiting experience. Here are a few suggestions to help you plan your visit:

  • Timed admission tickets must be purchased in advance. Tickets sell out quickly, so purchase early to avoid disappointment!

  • Timed admission tickets require you to choose the date and start time of your visit. Once you enter the Gardens, you may stay as long as you wish.

  • Purchase timed admission tickets online. Print your tickets at home to avoid lines once you arrive. Additional charges apply for phone orders.

  • Visit during non-peak days … fewer crowds and you save!

  • Members do not require a timed admission ticket. Become a member and experience holiday magic whenever you’d like!

  • Please note that on November 28, December 5, and December 12, from 5:00–9:00 pm, the Gardens will be open to Members only. Non-members are invited to visit prior to 5:00 pm on these days. Find out how to become a Member. See our holiday hours.

  • Groups (15 or more) must book in advance due to limited availability and receive a discounted rate.

  • Allow ample travel time to Longwood Gardens.

  • Parking is free. Overflow parking is used if needed. Longwood provides shuttles from the overflow parking lots to our Visitor Center.

  • A Longwood Christmas is indoors and outdoors. Please dress accordingly. Walking is required. A limited number of wheelchairs and scooters will be available.

  • Restaurants, concessions, and a gift shop are all available for you, as well as scheduled performances offered throughout the season.

Enjoy your visit!
