The Garden Press Event is a unique one-day exhibition taking place on Tuesday 20 February 2024 at the Business Design Centre in London. The only event of its kind for the industry, the exhibition provides an unrivalled opportunity for suppliers and garden industry companies to showcase new products, themes and stories to the garden press and media to kick start the gardening season.  

If your company has a new product for 2024, a new theme to showcase, or you are just looking to catch up with the media, this is a key show to be at. The event is designed to be accessible to all companies whatever their size, with stand space available at special introductory rates for first-time exhibitors. Discounts are available to GIMA and HTA members. 

With so many great stories to tell, exhibiting at the Garden Press Event provides an opportunity to make new contacts and get your messages across to a range of journalists, broadcasters, bloggers, influencers and press in the horticulture industry. Visitor entry is free of charge but restricted to bona fide editorial press, meaning that the event has become the launch pad for many new companies and product lines. 

All exhibitors can enter the New Product Awards, which are voted for by the media attending the show and raise funds for Greenfingers. In 2023, Wool Pots won the award for ‘Best New Product’ and Blue Diamond & National Trust took home the prize for ‘Best Stand.’ 

"We’ve exhibited at the Garden Press Event nine times now, and it has become a key date in our marketing calendar. It offers an unrivalled opportunity to meet and talk to a huge number of people, from a wide array of print, online and broadcast media. It’s at the perfect time of year too – just when communicators are researching ideas for the season to come. We wouldn’t miss it." Burgon and Ball
