Calendar > Family > 2010 Chicago Flower & Garden Show

The Chicago Flower & Garden Show will again cultivate excitement and enthrall crowds when it returns to Navy Pier on Chicago's lakefront. This year's theme is "CULTIVATING GREAT PERFORMANCES." Several Chicago theaters — and beloved stage plays — will be in the spotlight. Iconic plays including "Wicked," "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" and "Miss Saigon" will provide themes for gardens created by top landscape designers. And Chicago's lauded Lookingglass and Shakespeare theatres will provide inspiration for two of the show's 25 gardens. Hours: Monday-Saturday, 10 a.m.-8 p.m.; Sundays, 10-6 p.m. Weekday admission is $15 for adults and $5 for children ages 4-12. Weekend admission is $17 for adults but will remain $5 for children.
