This flower show is the latest and fastest-growing on the "flower show circuit". Lots of opportunities to consult the experts and to take home a prize plant! The extensive gardens attached to the Palace had their own TV programme a year or so ago. The glorious parkland is still as it was laid out by Lancelot "Capability" Brown. Blenheim Palace itself is full of interest. Built for the first Duke of Malborough by Sir John Vanborough, it was the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill.

Blenheim Palace is situated in the picturesque and historic town of Woodstock, and in 2001 saw the introduction of the very first Blenheim Palace Flower Show. Although perhaps most famous as the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill the palace itself is set in over 2,000 acres. The grounds reflect the evolution of grand garden design, featuring superb landscaping by Capability Brown.

The Flower Show blooms in the palace's beautifully landscaped gardens and this year it will flourish again with over 250 exhibitors. Ever more impressive gardens and floral combine with everything you need to add style, comfort and quality to outdoor living.

Now in it's third year and establishing itself as one of the leading flower show in the country, this is an event not to be missed. You will enjoy the magnificent flower pavilion, spectacular garden showcases, art gallery and fine food and wine.
