RHS Chelsea Flower Show London

The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is a world-renowned garden and plant exhibition that was founded in 1913 and takes place annually on the grounds of the Royal Hospital in Chelsea. The Royal Hospital Chelsea, the venue where the RHS Chelsea Flower Show is held, is itself a remarkable piece of British history and architecture. It was founded in 1682 by King Charles II and serves as a retirement home for former soldiers of the British Army, known as "Chelsea Pensioners". The complex is known for its impressive architecture in the style of Sir Christopher Wren, the same architect who designed St.

Paul's Cathedral. The grounds include several buildings, including the magnificent chapel and the "Great Hall" dining hall, as well as extensive green spaces and gardens that are perfect for the display of plants and garden designs as part of the Chelsea Flower Show. The show is organized by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), a British organization focused on horticulture and plant sciences. The fair attracts tens of thousands of visitors each year who admire the variety of displayed flowers, shrubs, and garden accessories, and inform themselves about the latest trends in horticulture. Exhibitors present their latest achievements in the fields of ornamental plants, garden equipment, and accessories. In addition, the show offers extensive information and tips on garden design and plant care, valuable for both amateur gardeners and professionals. In addition to the exhibitions, workshops and lectures on current topics are also offered, rounding off the program of the fair. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is not just a fair, but also a platform for the exchange of knowledge and ideas in horticulture. It is an annual highlight for all garden and plant lovers and contributes significantly to the promotion and development of horticulture. The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) also organizes other garden and plant shows in the UK in addition to the Chelsea Flower Show. These shows, together with the Chelsea Flower Show, form a series of events in the RHS annual calendar and offer horticulture enthusiasts from all over the UK and beyond the opportunity to discover new ideas, buy plants, and learn more about horticulture.

The RHS Chelsea Flower Show will take place on 5 days from Tuesday, 20. May to Saturday, 24. May 2025 in London.
