It's all fun and games in west London this May, as free flower festival Belgravia in Bloom returns.
'Floral Fun and Games' is the theme of this year's event, with playful installations of flowers and plants popping up around the area's shops, cafes and public places.
Full details of Belgravia in Bloom 2024 haven't been revealed yet, but in past years, the action has centred around Elizabeth Street, Eccleston Yards and Motcomb Street, with Instagram-famous cake shop Peggy Porschen and florist Neill Strain among the best displays. Take a look at last year's photos — with an 'Into the wild' theme — for an idea of what to expect.
Belgravia in Bloom coincides with the Chelsea Flower Show the same week. Similar free festival Chelsea in Bloom also takes place at the same time — so if you're up for a long walk, you can combine the two for a free, fantastically floral day out.
Belgravia in Bloom takes place 20-27 May 2024. It's free to visit. More details will be available closer to the time.
