The week of RHS Chelsea Flower Show is always a blur of excitement to see who won the most coveted medals. But one of the key accolades at RHS Chelsea is the People's Choice Award which is voted for by the public. And you can now cast your vote for the garden you love best.
Once the gold, silver-gilt, silver and bronze medals have been announced at RHS Chelsea, voting for the People's Choice Awards open, with awards available in each of the garden categories. The public are able to vote for their favourite for the Best Show Garden, the Best Small Show Garden, The Best Balcony or Container and the Best All About Plants Garden.

Voting in three of the categories opens at 9am Tuesday 19 May 2026, while the People's Choice Best Show Gardens voting opens at 3pm on Wednesday 20 May 2026. Voting for all categories closes at 8pm on Thursday 21 May 2026.
Vote for the People's Choice Best Show Garden here.
Winners of the People's Choice Awards will be announced at 8pm on Friday 22 May 2026.
Much like with the medals, the Feature Gardens are not eligble for the People's Choice Voting.
