This has been a family tradition since we moved to MI. We went tonight and enjoyed the lights. We even took the tram ride for the first time and learned new information. Every time one goes, it is like seeing it through new eyes. The crafts are cool, too, for the kids. Definitely a great family night!

The Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park does it right! Family from California visited, and of course, we wanted to take them to our favorite spot, the well-known Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park! The park opened their arms to our guests and took them on a special tram trip! We had missed the last tram scheduled due to Fall tour ... Read Morechanges but Meijer Gardens made certain that we were on a tram! They ran a special tram for our group and some other lucky fans! The kindness and warmth of the staff goes above & beyond! We highly recommend this garden and sculpture park which is ranked one of the top in the country! Grand Rapids, Michigan is a clean, friendly and historic city as well! One of the largest Historic Landmark districts in the nation is in the downtown center of this beautiful and contemporary city. Thank you Meijer Gardens!
