Make this holiday season special by celebrating with family at The Morton Arboretum for an elegant supper and visit with St. Nick. Enjoy a decadent buffet dinner and then head on over to the Founder’s Room for a special visit with Santa in front of the fireplace. After your dinner, enjoy Illumination: Tree Lights at The Morton Arboretum, included in your ticket price.
All families will have the opportunity to visit with Santa. Be sure to bring your camera to capture the memories! For our returning guests, our long-time Santa is passing the reins and we look forward to welcoming a new Santa to this special annual event.
