Set in the height of summer in the grounds of one of Britain’s most historic estates, the RHS Flower Show Tatton Park is a stunning blend of inspirational gardening with all the magnificence and grandeur of a garden party.
This year, we’re introducing four distinctive 'zones', each with its own special atmosphere and flavour:
Grow is the floral heart of the show - your chance to see magnificent displays of rare and familiar plants. Pick the brains of leading nurserymen and RHS experts and buy fabulous plants and practical tools. The ever popular floral marquee will be hosting a series of hands-on demos for you to join in.
Inspire pushes the boundaries of garden design with cutting-edge ideas and concepts. This year’s Young Designer Gardens feature Eco Innovations, while the Galaxy Gardens look to the heavens for inspiration.
Feast is a celebration of everything 'Grow your Own'! The zone takes you all the way from edible gardens and Great British Allotments to fruit and vegetable competitions, plot-to-plate demonstrations and the Great Taste Food Market.
Escape brings the seaside to the heart of Cheshire for this evocation of country and coastal living. It’s a shopper’s paradise, featuring beautiful furniture, practical tools and over 100 artists and craftspeople.
In addition, the RHS Summer Fruit & Vegetable Competition Pavilion will house the best of Grow Your Own along with specialist fruit and herb exhibitors.

With delicious food, brilliant music, fantastic shopping and even a special Ladies' Day, it’s a festival day out that really does have something for everyone.
'Whether you are a seasoned horticulturist hunting for new plants or just starting out and looking for tips on gardening basics, there is no better place to be this July. I hope you enjoy the North’s greatest garden party!' said Show Manager, Kris Hulewicz.
