Now in its 32nd year, the festival is a vibrant celebration of gardening, creativity, and Marlborough’s unique landscape.
At the heart of the festival are the guided garden tours, offering exclusive access to a hand-picked selection of inspiring private gardens – from coastal estates and lush countryside to hidden urban gems. With full-day and half-day options, these tours showcase the beauty, passion and hard work that define Marlborough’s gardening culture.
This year’s keynote speaker is international garden star, Jamie Durie. The award-winning designer and TV host will share insights from his groundbreaking new project, featured on Growing Home — a seven-level residence with 14 gardens and seamless indoor-outdoor living.
We’re also thrilled to welcome Fiona Hugues, recently named one of the Top 50 Women in Food and Drink Aotearoa, with her sessions on ‘Stylish Entertaining Without Freaking Out’ and festive table styling.
Plus, enjoy a full workshop program covering everything from bonsai and ceramics to flower farming, photography, soil health and more.
