Winter Solstice Concert at Huntsville Botanical Garden

Huntsville Botanical Garden marks the solstice with an afternoon concert by the string quartet Southern Strings on Sunday, December 20, 2026, in the Isenberg Grand Hall. Doors open at 2 p.m. and the music runs from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. with a 10-minute intermission. The Garden says the program is still to come and will draw on winter and the holidays.

Your ticket includes Garden admission, and the grounds are open from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. that day, so you can walk around before the show. Drinks and concessions are sold during the event. Galaxy of Lights Walking Night follows the concert and takes a separate ticket.

Tickets are advance only, at $35, or $20 for Garden members, and the Garden says sales are final. Buy them on the Garden event page.
