RHS London Harvest Festival Show 2017

Forget about Pumpkin Spice Lattes and celebrate everything autumnal with the RHS London Harvest Festival Show. Taking place in early October – just as the leaves begin to turn – the RHS London Harvest Festival Show is the must-see event showcasing everything from foodie treats to blooming plants.

From 2017, as part of the RHS’ commitment to growing the next generation of gardeners, shows held in one hall, such as the RHS Harvest Festival Show, will be free to RHS members and the public. Shows held in two halls will have a small entry charge for members (£5) and the public (£6 advance, £9 on the day).

Funds from ticket sales will go towards helping to pay for RHS Apprentices, to kick-start and enable young people’s careers in horticulture.

Foodie highlights



Central to the show is the abundant array of fresh autumn produce. Thanks to the handpicked selection of some of the UK's leading plant nurseries and independent food producers, you can prepare to come away gastronomically inspired and eager to cook up a seasonal soup and other delicious recipes.

Don't miss the Late Event held on the evening of the 3 October featuring everything from pumpkin carving to apple bobbing to help get you in the spirit of the season.
