Planning a visit to gardening events

Meomye · 1 March

I was wondering if people could possibly share upcoming gardening events worth visiting. Apart from Chelsea and Hampton court I confess I am ignorant of such events so when @JessicaS mentioned the Newark garden show recently (on the rose thread) it got me thinking how great it would be if I knew in advance when these things are happening so that I might plan to be in the area at the time. tia

For anyone in Norfolk late June there is Peter Beales Rose Festival on the 22nd and 23rd June.

@AnniD, Malvern is one I have heard of and yet to go to so thank you for that. No, no particular area, just thought it would be good to know just in case I fancied a trip away or you never know, I may even be holidaying in the area. I am sure it would be good for all of us to know so that we can plan accordingly.

I often go to malvern rhs as well. These are good fairs too, all over the country with lots of specialists.

It's worth keeping an eye on the Dixter pages. Their big plant fair is in April.

Humble but lovely are the Open Gardens

There are the Harrogate Flower shows in April and September. Tatton Park Flower Show in July. Gardeners World Show in June. Southport Flower Show - and this year is its Centenary Year - in August.

Thank you so much @JessicaS, @LG_, @Fire, @Ladybird4 for your great links and recommendations. At least now I can plan ahead.
