Large floral displays will once again be installed around Harrogate this summer.
Harrogate Business Improvement District announced today it is bringing back its floral summer of celebration.
A trail of displays will be placed in locations around the town, allowing visitors to celebrate the town’s floral heritage.
This year’s theme is friendship, which has also been adopted by the Royal Horticultural Society for its 60th anniversary celebrations in 2024.
Last year’s BID displays told the story of Harrogate’s twinned towns and multi-national co-operation.
Last year’s floral celebration focused on Harrogate’s twinned towns.
Harrogate BID’s floral celebration won gold in the BIDs, town centres and city centres category at the Britain in Bloom awards.
Harrogate BID manager Matthew Chapman said:
“We are incredibly passionate about promoting Harrogate as a floral destination in our own unique way – and we were thrilled to be crowned with the gold award at Britain in Bloom last year.
“We cannot thank the partners we work with, including Harrogate in Bloom, enough and look forward to welcoming hundreds of people and the In Bloom judges to our trail later this year.”
The floral event is part of the BID’s work to maintain Harrogate’s floral offering including planters and barrier baskets.
Further details of the event are yet to be announced.
Here are some of last year’s displays.
