Get ready for laughs, playful performances and Begonia fun at the Garden of Giggles!
With shows running all day, the Garden of Giggles is delivering non-stop laughter for both kids and grown-ups alike.
Kids can follow their curiosity with Polyglot Theatre's Bees, as three human-sized Bees busy themselves in the creation of a community alongside children who transform into bees as they play.
The Vegetable Plot brings the music and storytelling to help kids fall in love with veggies! Their songs are filled with jokes and puns to show kids that language isn’t just something you learn to pass a test, it’s something you play and create with.
The much-loved Laughter House returns this year, popping up throughout the day with bursts of comedy and joyful moments that keep the giggles coming!
