The UK’s most sustainable flower festival returns this September, transforming Strawberry Hill House & Garden into a spectacular celebration of flowers, creativity, and colour.
For four days, over 30 of the UK’s most exciting floral designers will fill the house and gardens with immersive installations, using only British-grown flowers and sustainable techniques.
Brought to you by Flowers at the House and co-curated by Flowers on the Edge, this year’s festival brings together both established and emerging talent, offering a fresh take on contemporary floral design within one of Britain’s most extraordinary historic settings.
Complete your visit with a seasonal picnic in the gardens, crafted by our friends at Roots & Berries (click here to preorder your picnic).
Looking for something extra special? Join us for an exclusive evening Flower Festival experience on the Friday 11th or Saturday 12th September, with after-hours access and a complimentary glass of fizz in the gallery.
The festival runs for just four days. To protect this Grade I listed building, ticket numbers are limited—advance booking is strongly recommended.
