Palos Verdes homes owners will enjoy an evening of summer fun when visiting the South Coast Botanic Garden for their Sunset Series, a weekly event that will bring the Garden to life after hours on Thursdays from 5:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. This is the fourth season for this program where guests can roam the 87 acres, enjoy Dottie’s, the new food and beverage concession station near the Living Wall (sip on a cocktail or grab a bite to eat while enjoying the Garden’s natural beauty), enjoy yard games and music. The younger generation will be entertained in the Kid’s Zone by the fun and energetic Ms. Allison. They can enjoy parachute fun, obstacle courses, lawn bowling, bubbles and more. The Garden will provide the fun, however, parents still provide the supervision.
The program will change slightly each week and begin on June 5 – Reggae Night with Survival Band featuring Jah Faith, June 12 – Country Night with Franklin Wallo, June 19 – Dueling Piano Night with Pianomania, June 26 – R & B with Tyghtship, July 10 – Disco Night with Modern Highway, July 17 – Blues Night with The Chester Martin Blues Band, July 24 – Santana Night with Smooth Sounds of Santana, July 31 – Sitar Meets Pop Night with Ronobir Lahiri, August 7 – Jimmy Buffett Night with Mark Wood & the Parrot Head Band, August 14 – Selena Night with Amor Prohibido, August 21 – Throwback Thursday Night with The 80’x All Starz, & August 28 – High Tide Night with Yacht Rocker.
No outside food or beverage will be allowed during the Sunset Series. They are also offering an exclusive VIP experience. With a VIP ticket, you get premium seating (still bring a blanket or lawn chair), access to the VIP bar, one free non-alcoholic Butterfly Palmer per ticket holder, unlimited access to SOAR, Tropical Butterflies throughout the night and early entry into the Garden (5:00 p.m. rather than 5:30 p.m.).
