New York Botanical Garden’s Winter Wonderland Ball

Now in its 18th year, the Winter Wonderland Ball remains NYC’s most fashionable party of the holiday season, a blacktie event featuring cocktails, dinner, and dancing in sight of the Haupt Conservatory’s twinkling holiday display. Begin the evening with cocktails under the dome of the Palms of the World Gallery, toasting the Holiday Train Show^® amid an expanded exhibition of trains, bridges, and tracks—a New York landscape in miniature built on decades of tradition. Afterward, join fellow guests in the Conservatory Tent for a party unlike any other, with gourmet dining, followed by a night of swirling gowns and perfect playlists. This event supports the Garden’s world-renowned Children’s Education Programs, allowing children of all ages the opportunity to learn about nature through workshops and hands-on activities.
