WVU Core Arboretum Spring Flower Festival - April 18, 2026

Come to WVU Core Arboretum for our ninth annual Spring Flower Festival on Saturday, April 18, from 2-6 pm! This family-friendly, free event is open to everyone and will showcase the beautiful spring ephemeral wildflower display that happens every year in the Arboretum’s old-growth forest preserve.

We will have a self-guided wildflower tour, live music, food trucks in the parking lot, and other fun activities. These flowers only last a couple of weeks every year, so catch them while they’re out! You can learn more about the spring ephemeral wildflowers at the Festival or on the WVU Core Arboretum website.
