Southport Flower Show

The Southport Flower Show is a major annual event and is held in the 34 acre site of Victoria Park, Southport and has been running since 1924. It often attracts over 100,000 visitors over the 3 or 4 day show and will be held in 2010 on August 19th - 22nd. The Southport Flower Show this year will see a fine food offering, with local suppliers from across the North West of England offering everything from cheese, pickles and preserves to locally produced wine. Chefs will be on hand with live demonstrations to show visitors how to make the most of their ingredients. More than 250 exhibitors will take over 34 acres of Southport's beautiful Victoria Park, offering everything from home and garden furniture to local arts and crafts. Entertainment will include live music, arena displays and appearances from some of the country's favourite celebrity gardeners, who will be offering visitors advice on creating their own show-stopping garden.
