Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show

The Southern Hemisphere’s largest horticultural event returns to Carlton Gardens and the world heritage-listed Royal Exhibition Building, 29th March until 2nd April 2023.

Over five days, the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show, presented by Scotts Osmocote, will excite plant lovers and flower fanatics from all ages with world-class landscape and floral designs, educational talks from industry elites, hands-on workshops, family-friendly experiences, and a catalogue of the latest and greatest gardening products.

Bigger and better than ever, the Festival’s 2023 outdoor program will boast more than 50 enchanting garden displays across five categories: the world-class Landscape Design Show Gardens, 5 x 5 metre Boutique Gardens, student-led Achievable Gardens, Ryman Healthcare Balcony Gardens and bespoke Border Gardens. Inviting everyday gardening enthusiasts to get involved and showcase their own designs, the Show will also welcome back the Hanging Basket Competition, alongside hands-on Growing Workshops by Scotts Osmocote, and NGIV’s invigorated ‘Grow Your Career’ Hub.

Inside, the Royal Exhibition Building will be transformed into a botanical paradise with all-new Brush & Bubbles classes, award-winning floral displays, a dedicated wedding showcase, floral fashions by RMIT students and delicious high tea sessions. The Scotts Osmocote Indoor Plant Zone will also return with sprawling inspiration for plant devotees looking to enhance their indoor spaces.

On Friday 31st March, visitors can experience the Show under a whole new light as Carlton Gardens transforms into a twinkling paradise for Gardens by Twilight.
