Bath Spring Flower Show 2006.

20/04/2006

The Council’s Annual Bath Spring Flower Show takes place at the Royal Victoria Park, during the Bank Holiday weekend of the 29th April -1st May.

The Show’s appeal is not just to the gardener. Nobody could fail to be impressed by the quality and sheer beauty of the Floral Art Marquee display by members of the area’s Floral Art Clubs.

A varied selection of gardening sundries are available and contained within the Horticultural Sundries Marquee.

The Bath Beekeepers exhibit will attract its usual large and fascinated audience.

British Food and Farming have a marquee where you have an opportunity to buy first class British farm produce.

Local Women’s Institutes and Townswomen’s Guilds have their own marquee with competition entries and delicious home baked cakes and preserves.

Children can spend a very enjoyable and productive time in the Children’s Activity Marquee run by Bath Area Play Project and for the under 5’s and nursing mothers, there is a crèche.

Food and drink is available throughout the day.

Bands and dancers provide entertainment.

Weather presents no problem as practically all of the Show is held under cover with parking being available close to the showground.

The show is open 10.00am - 6.00pm each day. The entrance charge is £6.50 for adults, £5 for OAP’s and all unaccompanied children. Accompanied children under 16 are free.

The inaugural Bath Flower Show was commissioned to celebrate the centenary of the Botanical Gardens (in 1987), a stone's throw away from the showground, and well worth a visit for its beauty and peace.
