Not making it to the flower show this year? No worries – Cadogan and the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) have brought the Chelsea Flower Show out into the local streets once more with Chelsea in Bloom.
The theme for 2024 is ‘Floral Feasts’, with inspiration taken from culinary favourites and memorable foodie scenes and characters across film, literature, history and art. The streets of Chelsea will be transformed with floral creations adorning the frontages of more than 120 businesses, shops and restaurants, from The Ivy Chelsea Garden, Massimo Dutti and The White Company to Sticks’n’Sushi, Tiffany & Co. and The Cadogan Arms.
Chelsea in Bloom are partnering with two special charities this year – The Felix Project, fighting against hunger and food waste across London, and The Confetti Club, repurposing leftover fresh petals as confetti through which they raise funds for Cancer Research UK.
Gold, Silver, Bronze and Merit awards will be awarded to participants by both RHS and Lifestyle Judges, plus top awards for ‘Best Floral Display’, ‘Highly Commended’ and ‘Innovation Award’; winners will be announced on Tuesday, 21st May 2024.
Voting for ‘People’s Champion’ is decided by the public and the online voting will open from 5pm on Monday 20th and close at midnight on Thursday 23rd – don’t forget to vote for your favourite!
