Butterfly Haven at the Virginia Living Museum Opens June 14!

Butterfly Haven at the Virginia Living Museum is Opens for the Summer

Butterflies are back at the Virginia Living Museum from June 14, 2025 – September 26, 2025. You can walk through the butterfly house, a breathtaking walk-through experience where native butterflies flutter around you in a lush, immersive habitat. Marvel at their delicate beauty, observe their incredible life cycle up close—from tiny eggs to fluttering adults—and discover the essential role native plants play in their survival.

The exciting new exhibit will engage guests of all ages as they immerse themselves in a world of butterflies and plants! With 150 adult butterflies and 40 chrysalises at launch, as well as weekly additions, no two visits will be the same!

In mid-September, a special Monarch Tag & Release event will take place to contribute to the Monarch SAFE program in partnership with AZA, tracking these majestic travelers on their migration journey. Additional information will be released closer to date.

Butterfly Haven is included in daily admission or membership. Virginia Living Museum is located at 524 J. Clyde Morris Blvd. Newport News, VA 23601. More information at https://thevlm.org.
