The RHS's shows may be over for 2026, but the Royal Horticultural Society hasn't kept us waiting long to find out where they will take place next year. Alongside RHS Malvern Spring Festival in Worcestershire and RHS Chelsea Flower Show in London, there will be a brand-new event in Bristol in July.
The exciting new show will take place in Bristol's Prospect Building, where indoor spaces and an outdoor courtyard will see a full-scale botanical takeover. Visitors will be able to enjoy a programme of pop-up plant displays, expert talks and advice, as well as hands-on workshops and immersive experiences.
The RHS show in Bristol will run from 8th–11th July 2027.

Next year will also see the return of RHS Flower Show Tatton Park in Cheshire, which is running again after a three-year break. The Tatton Park show will take place from 21st–25th July 2027 at the Tatton Park estate, representing the North West with show gardens, floral exhibits, specialist growers and talks. There will also be Young Designer Gardens to showcase new talent in the industry.
These changes are part of the RHS's new system of touring shows, which it announced back in 2024, which means it takes its shows to new locations and audiences each year. So far, events have included RHS Wentworth Woodhouse in 2025, and RHS Badminton and RHS Sandringham this year.
“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," said RHS director of development and shows, James Wren.
"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.”
As well as these new shows, there will also be seasonal shows and plant society events at RHS gardens across the UK.
