Wedding guests will have free admission to the Morton Arboretum the day of the wedding. Let the gatehouse know you are guests for the Hyc Kucek wedding and you will be admitted. If you have some free time in the morning, feel free to visit the Children's Garden, Maze Garden, 16 miles of hiking trails or visit the exclusive Of the Earth art exhibition. If you don't want to walk or hike, you can drive around the entire Arboretum and stop at any of the parking lots to view the different tree collections. We would recommend the Magnolia Collection (Parking Lot 5 - East Side) and Spruce Plot (Parking Lot 12 - East Side). Savor hard cider and seasonal beers from more than 30 local breweries and cideries. The Cider and Ale Festival will be hosted on Saturday, October 5, 2024 from noon to 4:00 p.m at The Morton Arboretum.
