What is Butterfly Magic?
The Butterfly Magic exhibit is a seasonal event that takes place annually at the Tucson Botanical Gardens. This immersive experience takes you inside a specially designed butterfly house, where hundreds of butterflies from around the world flutter freely around you. As you walk through the tropical conservatory, you’ll encounter species native to the Southwest, as well as exotic butterflies from places like Central America and Southeast Asia.
Visitors can observe the entire life cycle of these magnificent creatures—from caterpillars to pupae to adult butterflies. The exhibit also features educational displays about the ecological importance of butterflies, their role in pollination, and how you can attract these beautiful insects to your own garden.
