RHS Shows confirmed for 2027, including a new festival in Bristol

RHS Shows will continue to bring world-class horticulture to new locations in 2027, with an exciting calendar of four major events including its first-ever urban show in Bristol

Key dates for 2027: 

• RHS Malvern Spring Festival, 6 - 9 May 2027 

• RHS Chelsea Flower Show, 18 - 22 May 2027

• New RHS event in Bristol, 8 - 11 July 2027

• RHS Flower Show Tatton Park, 21 - 25 July 2027

In 2024, the RHS announced its intention to ‘tour’ its globally recognised shows, taking them to stunning new locations and new audiences. This has included RHS Wentworth Woodhouse in 2025 and RHS Badminton and RHS Sandringham in 2026, engaging communities, schools and horticulturists across Yorkshire, Gloucestershire, Norfolk and beyond. The RHS now looks to Bristol to stage an urban floral spectacle.

The new Bristol event, set for 8 - 11 July 2027, will take the RHS to the heart of the city in the Prospect Building, a vibrant city-centre venue featuring indoor spaces and an outdoor courtyard to host a full-scale botanical takeover. Visitors can expect a full programme of pop-up plant displays, expert talks and advice, hands-on workshops and immersive experiences that reflect one of the UK’s most creative cities. 

After a three-year touring interlude, RHS Flower Show Tatton Park returns for 21 - 25 July 2027 in the beautiful estate of Tatton Park in Cheshire. Known for its strong regional identity, RHS Tatton will showcase the horticultural talent of the North West with floral exhibits, show gardens, specialist growers and talks stages along with the return of the Young Designer Gardens to introduce exciting new talent.

RHS Director of Development and Shows, James Wren said: “After the success of our new shows at Wentworth Woodhouse, Badminton Estate and Sandringham Estate, we are delighted to be continuing our work to make the RHS more accessible and to welcome more people into gardening. Our new event in Bristol will bring the spectacle of an RHS Show to a bustling city centre providing inspiration for all gardeners, whether they have a small city garden or just a windowsill.” 

“Alongside our new shows, which allow us to work with new partners and create imaginative content, we are delighted to be returning to Cheshire for RHS Tatton Park to celebrate the North West and its proud horticultural community. These of course sit alongside RHS Chelsea and RHS Malvern as stalwarts in the horticultural calendar.” 

Tickets for RHS Shows 2027 will be released soon. 

In addition to the externally hosted RHS Shows, RHS Gardens will welcome their own seasonal shows and plant society events. A full calendar can be found at rhs.org.uk/shows-events
