Date Night Campfire at the Garden on October 20 invites guests to unwind after hours and cozy up around campfires. Guests can roast s’mores & hot dogs, play yard games, make a fall craft, and enjoy live music from Rowdy Franks. Two cocktails, hot dog bar, s’mores, and beer samples from Grind City Brewing Company are included with admission (vegan/vegetarian options available). This special date night is adults only (21+). Admission is $25 for MBG Members and $30 for Non-Members (per person). A special thank you to Grind City Brewing Company.
