The Manchester Flower Show

Queen’s Jubilee Weekend, 2 – 5 June
Manchester City Centre

This year’s Manchester Flower Show is a very special affair. Flower displays, gardens and blooms celebrate the Queen’s 70 years of service. Across the extra-long Platinum Jubilee weekend, shop windows, squares, streets, and even statues go green (and red, and white, and blue). It’s free, it’s floral, and there’s a whole heap of alfresco food, drink and fun to be had at all your favourite shops, bars and restaurants.

Follow the floral fun on Facebook, Instagram & Twitter.

The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Urban Garden
