Here Comes the Sun

We’re ready for May! Join us as we kick off what promises to be a gorgeous summer season. Our annual membership drive begins May 1, culminating with our summer Member Day on June 1.

Between May 1 and June 2, use code BRSOCIAL24 to take $15 off yearly membership dues, or $25 off with code BRSOCIAL24BONUS when you check the box to automatically renew. Members enjoy benefits all year round, including members-only time slots, discounts in the Shop, and regular invitations and early access to selected walks, workshops, and events.

Not a member? Sign up or renew to take advantage of longer summer days during our reimagined Summer Sunset Walks, which take place on one Friday of each month, May-September from 5-8 PM. Stroll through the gardens during these members-only hours, then pause on the Residence lawn before or after your walk to enjoy the twilight hour with a picnic (bring your own!) and a glass of wine compliments of Bloedel Reserve.

Bloedel Reserve is open year-round, rain or shine, and members always visit for free. Memberships are non-refundable and non-transferable.

Timed Ticket FAQs

We invite you to return to the gardens often, take part in our events and programs, and experience the year-round beauty of Bloedel Reserve. Walk once a week, once a month, or even once a day and see the seasons change. Visit the Buxton Bird Marsh and Pollinator Meadow in late spring, sit by the Reflection Pool with a Creative Resident poet, or wander full circle around the Japanese Garden Pond.
