Harrogate Autumn Flower Show is moving to a spectacular new location at Newby Hall & Gardens, near Ripon, this year.
Set in the grounds of one of England’s finest stately homes, the show will be the first major national gardening event to include admission to award-winning gardens in the ticket price.
The show takes place on 17 – 19 September 2021 and will feature favourites like garden installations, plant nurseries, a world-famous giant veg competition, live theatre and Britain’s biggest display of autumn blooms.
New for 2021 is a series of stunning floral art exhibits inspired by the beautiful interior of the stately home. Newby as Nature will take visitors on an amazing journey through a series of ground-floor rooms before emerging into the hall’s fabulous gardens.
A packed programme of live talks and demos will include grow-your-own tips and delicious dishes from the Great Northern Larder, stunning arrangements from celebrity floral designer Jonathan Moseley, and regular gardener’s questions from the GROW! team.
A special outdoor exhibition on The Art of the Chrysanthemum will tell the story of one of the world’s most ancient blooms, while another exhibition traces the history of Newby, which boasts with some of Europe’s longest herbaceous borders and 15 different garden ‘rooms’.
Admission includes the flower show and access to Newby’s gardens and adventure park, plus great garden shopping, crafts, gifts and specialist foods.
Show Director Nick Smith said: “We are really looking forward to welcoming both visitors and exhibitors back to the autumn show, especially in our fantastic new location at Newby Hall. The move has really given us an opportunity to reimagine what our show could look like and we hope that our visitors will be as excited as we are about the future!”
