The annual weekend of opening up loads of private gardens and large garden squares will return this summer, and discounted tickets are now on sale.

Hereford Square

So far, 114 gardens have agreed to open their gates to the public, and most of them are the usually private squares in central London that are usually only open to local residents. There’s also a scattering of interesting gardens, such as hotel spaces, some rooftops and some award-winning gardens.

Seven new gardens join them this year, including OmVed Gardens and the roof gardens of 245 Hammersmith Road and 25 Cannon Street in the city.

Twenty gardens will return to the event after a year or two away, and some regular gardens have brand new displays. A small number of gardens will require pre-booking. Full details will be on their website closer to the date.

The Open Gardens weekend takes place on 10th and 11th June 2023.

Tickets are currently on sale for £16.40 for the whole weekend when booked from here – the normal price will be £21.20.

Free tickets are available for children (11 years and under) and for those people requiring Companions. Free tickets must be booked online, in advance and are only valid for entry with an accompanying adult ticket holder.

SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE

This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.

It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.

Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.

If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.
