In March, we reported that the popular outdoor concert series ‘Groovin’ in the Garden’ — held annually at the Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens — would not happen in 2008 due to a major renovation of the rose gardens. The Lewis Ginter website recently provided more details:

Construction at LGBG is expected to be completed by early summer 2008. Dedication of the Rose Garden will take place in mid-fall of 2008 allowing the rose plants to establish and mature for a stunning grand opening.

Lewis Ginter’s Groovin’ in the Garden series, hosted by Haymaker Productions, is on hiatus for 2008 during the construction and “settling in” of the new Rose Garden and Belvedere. We are very excited about the return of the series on Thursdays in May and June of 2009, the Garden’s Silver Anniversary Year. Concertgoers will find the performances staged in a greatly expanded and even more beautiful rose garden, with double the hardscape, 1800 new rose plants and a terraced and sodded lawn for the audience. As always, the music will be exceptional, picking up where we left off last year with remarkable acts and record attendance.
