Father's Day at Fairchild

Spend Father’s Day building, racing, tasting and relaxing in a lush tropical setting at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden. Father’s Day at Fairchild takes place Sunday, June 15, offering a full day of interactive activities, family games and nature-filled fun designed for all ages.

The Build & Bond Craft Studio invites kids and parents to create keepsake projects like bug hotels, birdhouses, wind chimes and pinewood derby cars (additional purchase required). Families can also enjoy a lineup of classic outdoor games—tug of war, three-legged races, giant pong and more—as well as a festive Bubble Dance Party scheduled throughout the day.

For those seeking a challenge, the Hole-In-One Contest offers a chance to win a $5,000 grand prize. Held at the Lower Bailey Palm Glade, the contest includes family-friendly chipping rounds and rules for entry, with all equipment provided by Fairchild.

Live DJ entertainment, mister zones and shaded seating areas offer moments to cool off, while food vendors and beverage stations provide everything from Cuban beer flights and Prosecco on tap to picnic baskets available for preorder through June 10. Guests will also find face painting, crafts and additional amenities including free parking, ADA shuttles and on-site support services.

Admission does not include food or activity add-ons. Outside food, glass containers and pets are not permitted.
