The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) has announced that it will be taking its flower shows to different locations across the country from next year.
The team said the plans have been put in place so that even more groups will get the chance to experience the joys of horticulture at one of its events across different venues.
Highlights in the RHS flower show calendar include RHS Malvern Spring and the iconic RHS Chelsea, among other top picks.
What’s new?
After this summer’s 25th anniversary show, RHS Flower Show Tatton Park will be back every three years, returning in 2027 to celebrate gardening in the north west.
In 2025, an RHS Show will take place at Wentworth Woodhouse in South Yorkshire and in 2026, the team will have a show taking place on the Sandringham Estate, the private country retreat of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla.
RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival will take place this year and in 2025, before it becomes a biennial festival at the palace in Richmond that was once home to Henry VIII.
In 2026, there will be a new RHS Show taking place in the historic grounds of Badminton Estate in Gloucestershire, returning to Hampton Court Palace in 2027.
The very first RHS Urban Show took place in Manchester this year, and another Urban Show will be announced for a new location next year shortly, encouraging more people to embrace urban and indoor gardening. RHS Malvern Spring Festival and RHS Chelsea Flower Show will continue as usual for 2025 and beyond.
Groups can save money on tickets to all RHS Flower Shows, as well as discounted admission and other perks at its five gardens: RHS Garden Wisley (Surrey), RHS Garden Bridgewater (Greater Manchester), RHS Garden Harlow Carr (North Yorkshire), RHS Garden Hyde Hall (Essex) and RHS Garden Rosemoor (Devon).
