The Dallas Arboretum is conveniently located 2 miles from both Interstate Highway 635 and Interstate Highway 30, with easy access and complimentary parking for tour buses. Bus drop-off and pick-up locations make it very convenient for large groups to visit. For groups, we offer discounted tickets, guided tours, and lunches as explained below.

The Dallas Arboretum offers a pre-selected luncheon to groups of 15 or more who visit the Arboretum. A more elegant three-course seated lunch is also available. Final purchase of meals and selections of menu items will need to be received at least 72 hours or 3 business days prior to your scheduled visit to the Arboretum. All payments for meals must be paid in advance. 

We offer two pre-arranged dining options for groups:

• All groups interested in having a seated lunch, please email steve@gilselegantcatering.com or call 214.515.6610 and ask for the Restaurant Manager. Available for a maximum of 40 guests and based upon space and availability. View menu here.
• Boxed lunch from Beyond the Box Catering. View menu here. View pickup location here.

The Dallas Arboretum offers large groups discounts in other areas of the Garden as well. Take advantage of a 10% discount at the Hoffman Family Gift Shop offered to all groups (present your group ticket to redeem discount). Additionally, as a “thank you” for bringing your large group via bus, we offer free bus parking to all groups arriving on a bus or van.
