Flower lovers have a beautiful reason to visit London this October as Flowers-in-the-Fields brings a vibrant celebration of floral design to St Martin-in-the-Fields at Trafalgar Square.
Taking place October 15–17, 2026, the festival celebrates 300 years of St Martin-in-the-Fields, combining flowers, creativity and community in one of London’s most recognizable settings.
A Festival Filled With Flowers
Festival designer Judith Blacklock will be joined by arrangements from Fleurs-de-Villes, Kent Floral Art, the Surrey Area of NAFAS, St Martin’s community groups and an international team.
