PROGRAM Winnie the Pooh & the Hundred Acre Wood IN DOWNERS GROVE

Winnie the Pooh and all his friends from the Hundred Acre Wood are coming to Downers Grove in 2026!

Visit Lyman Woods to check out Winnie the Pooh’s, Piglet’s and other character’s homes around the Lyman Woods trails or partake in one of our Winnie the Pooh inspired programs each season. We’ll also have life-sized Winnie the Pooh character cutouts to visit in your neighborhood parks (see listing below) throughout the year. To cap off the series, we’ll have a festive celebration to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the publication of AA Milne’s first Winnie the Pooh book in October 2026 (more details to come).
