The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) is gearing up for a landmark two years as it announces a packed calendar of garden events, illuminated winter trails, and world-renowned flower shows across the UK. Following a busy season of industry activity, the gardening charity is now encouraging travel trade partners and group organisers to make the most of its expanded offering for 2025 and 2026.
With five world-class gardens located across the country, the RHS is promising an exceptional programme designed to appeal to everyone, from seasoned horticulturists to casual weekend gardeners and visitors seeking a day immersed in nature. Each site offers a rolling schedule of special events, self-guided and private tours, plus new catering options, ensuring groups can tailor their visit throughout the year.
The charity has published its latest Groups & Travel Trade Guide, giving an overview of all five RHS gardens and venues, alongside details of seasonal programming. Additional information, including filters by garden, event type, themes and dates, is available via the RHS’s online events hub.
One of the headline attractions for 2025–26 is RHS Glow, the society’s popular illuminated winter trail which transforms all five gardens into festive wonderlands. The RHS confirmed that 2026 group bookings for Glow can be made at 2025 prices, offering additional value for early planners.
Alongside its garden events, the RHS has also announced dates for its four iconic flower shows in 2026. These include the Malvern Spring Festival (7–10 May), the RHS Chelsea Flower Show (19–23 May), the Badminton Flower Show (8–12 July) and the RHS Sandringham Flower Show (22–26 July). The newly released RHS Shows 2026 Information and Pricing Guide outlines ticketing, catering packages and booking processes for trade partners.
As the UK’s leading gardening charity, the RHS continues to expand its mission to promote gardening as a source of joy, wellbeing and environmental resilience. Its programme spans inspirational garden experiences, cutting-edge horticultural research, and extensive education and community initiatives.
The organisation says it looks forward to welcoming visitors to its gardens and shows throughout the coming years and is encouraging trade partners to reach out for further information or to arrange group bookings.
