Anyone wondering on what to buy their father for Father’s Day 2024 which falls on this Sunday 16th June 2024 may wish to consider this:- that time spent with their father doing his favourite hobby may be a lot more appreciated than a hugely expensive gift. With BBC Gardeners’ World Live & BBC Good Food Show back in the NEC from 13/06/2024 – 16/6/2024, buying a ticket for just £28 per adult (cheaper if bought in advance) may be the ideal Father’s Day present for 2024, especially if he has your lovely company too.
My family and I have been attending this show for many years and it is absolutely a highlight in my calendar each year. The idea of smelling all the beautiful gorgeous blooms and taking photos of all the prize winning specimens of the most spectacular blooms in the country, fills me with joy each summer. Each year, I also bring friends with me and we can gaze at the fantastic garden displays, wondering why our gardens look nothing like the show gardens, and then dash for some gin at the BBC Good Food Show, before returning to buy more plants from the Gardeners’ World section.
In addition to the country’s best flowers and plants on sale, there are useful gardening equipment and furniture to treat your father to, or just treat yourself!
NEW for this year is the UK's largest Orchid Show - the International Orchid Show has something for everyone, whether you are an orchid pro or have none (yet) at all. What’s more, it’s now to be found, from 2024, in the Floral Marquee at BBC Gardeners’ World Live!
At the end of the show, don’t forget your Goody Bags which usually will contain some food and other products to try at home. Absolutely fantastic day out with family and friends.
