East Meon Flower Festival is back in all its blooming glory

DATE

April 22, 2026

Don’t miss your chance to see beautiful blooms and flourishing florets at East Meon Flower Festival, when it returns this May 2026.

For four days, the beautiful Grade I-listed All Saints’ Church will be dressed to the nines with stunning floral displays for the East Meon Flower Festival – transforming the historic 11th-century building into a celebration of creativity, nature and community.

Taking place from Friday 22 to Monday 25 May, this year’s festival will feature more than 20 floral-themed displays, each created by and representing the groups and societies that make up village life in East Meon.

From farming communities and the cricket team to cold-water swimmers, allotment holders, beekeepers and the local history society, the displays will reflect the village’s rich character and diversity.

Wherever possible, arrangements will use locally sourced, environmentally friendly materials.

While celebrating creativity and community, the festival also highlights a serious purpose. As a unique and very old building, All Saints’ requires constant care, and urgent repair and renovation work is needed; and proceeds from the Flower Festival will directly support some vital projects.

Alongside the floral displays, visitors can enjoy delicious teas, a local artists’ exhibition in the church hall, live jazz, daily history tours, and the melodic bells pealing over the weekend, too. Tickets from ticketsourced.co.uk/eastmeonflowerfestival2026.

And, as a special one-off event, the Octavus Choir will perform on Saturday 23 May at 7pm in the church, with a floral-themed programme of music and poetry.

Tickets sold separately and include a glass of wine! Tickets at tinyurl.com/bdekfrz9.
