Golden Hour

About Golden Hour at the Garden

Step into an evening of laid-back elegance at Golden Hour, set against the natural beauty of Cedar Glade at Huntsville Botanical Garden. As the sun begins to set, the Garden transforms into a vibrant gathering place, inviting guests to unwind and connect.

Enjoy live music in the open air, sip refreshing drinks, and savor flavorful fare from the Fern & Feast Bistro food trailer. Whether you’re catching up with friends, enjoying a date night, or simply soaking in the moment, Golden Hour is the perfect way to celebrate a beautiful spring, summer, or fall evening.

Inspired by the soft glow of sunset and the peaceful shift from day to night, this event offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere for all. Come as you are, and stay as long as you’d like—there’s no better way to end the day.
