RHS Shows will continue to bring world-class horticulture to new locations in 2027, with the charity confirming a calendar of four major events including its first-ever in Bristol.

Sitting alongside the RHS Chelsea Flower Show (18-22 May) and RHS Malvern Spring Festival (6-9 May) in the event calendar will be a new RHS event in Bristol (8-11 July) and return of the much-loved RHS Flower Show Tatton Park (21-25 July).

The charity announced in 2024 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 Sandringham and RHS Badminton this year, 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 Malvern Spring Festival will kick off the floral calendar (6-9 May) with the world’s most famous gardening event and the RHS’ most important fundraiser, RHS Chelsea Flower Show, shortly after (18-22 May).

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.”

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
