This year, consider giving a gift that goes beyond the holiday season: a membership to South Coast Botanic Garden. Perfect for families, nature lovers, or someone who seems to have everything, a Garden membership opens the door to a year filled with beauty, discovery and connection with nature. It’s a thoughtful way to share the joy of spending time outdoors and exploring all the Garden has to offer.
With events like SOAR – Tropical Butterflies and traveling exhibits (like last year’s Thomas Dambo’s Trolls: Save the Humans), there’s always something new to experience. Families can also enjoy seasonal programs like Lunar New Year and Sunset Series, while those seeking a peaceful escape will love the serene paths and inspiring landscapes. Membership includes discounted or free tickets to our exhibits, programs and events throughout the year.
For those who love to travel or explore, membership offers reciprocal access to more than 360 gardens nationwide, including many here in California. It’s an invitation to discover new places, connect with nature, and enjoy the simple pleasures of the outdoors. Members also receive perks like discounts at select local nurseries.
A Garden membership is more than just access to our 87 acres — it’s an invitation to enjoy experiences and take adventures that inspire, connect and create lasting memories. It’s a gift that keeps giving, offering something to look forward to year-round.
