We visit Sandringham Flower Show, one of the most prestigious horticultural events in the calendar. Set in the magnificent surroundings of Sandringham Park, with beautiful Sandringham House as a backdrop, this one-day show welcomes visitors from across the world. You will experience leading nurseries, horticultural specialists, competitions, and a whole host of events throughout the show.

The display gardens are a very popular attraction, built to a standard that rivals many of the main horticultural shows. There is also a large catering marquee with seating, as well as numerous stalls, and other food outlets dotted throughout the show.

Please note that Sandringham House is not open to visitors on the day of the Flower Show.
