🎟 $35, $31/students & seniors, $20/ages 2-12, free/under 2

Suggested Ages: All, Adult Friendly

Marvel at model trains zipping through an enchanting display of more than 175 famous New York landmarks—imagine the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, Rockefeller Center, and other favorites—each delightfully re-created from natural materials such as pine cones, acorns, and seeds. This year includes an all-new, outdoor train display.

🧣 The show itself is in the Haupt Conservatory and climate-controlled, but there is a bit of a walk from the man entrance so dress accordingly. Wear layers as the show itself can get warm.

🌴 Take breaks from the crowds in the tropical rainforest and desert wings of the Conservatory where there are no trains but lots of room to roam freely.

👶 Strollers must be parked outside the Conservatory – consider leaving your coats, hats etc. with them.

🪴 Also visit the charming Everett Children’s Adventure Garden with fun nature and train-inspired outdoor and indoor activities.

🎟 On select nights, also see outdoor light show NYBG Glow for $17 more.

Tue-Sun 10 am-6 pm
