What you need to know
- Some gardens open only this weekend, so it's a chance to walk through private estates and sites that stay closed the rest of the year
- Friday leans toward school groups, so Saturday and Sunday are the days to go as a family
- Each garden sets its own program, so check the official map for times, entry and any booking before you pick one
About
France's national open-gardens weekend, run by the Ministry of Culture. Public parks, private estates and botanical gardens open their gates, some of them only for this weekend. Families find guided tours, workshops, walks and the odd concert among the flower beds. The 2027 theme is lawns, meadows and grasslands. It suits kids who like to look closely at plants and bugs, less so ones who need a playground.
