Avebury Manor Garden celebration day

Step into a day of garden magic as we celebrate creativity, community, and the joy of spring.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

We will be celebrating spring in Avebury Manor Garden on Monday 25 May.

Join us in the garden to make your own flower crowns, or to plant a seed to take home with you.

Our 2026 artist in residence Georgie Weedon will also be hosting a relaxed paint-along session, giving you the chance to create your own piece of art.

Live music will be provided on the day by the Baker's Dozen Choir and Head Gardener Garry Mumford will be available to answer your own gardening questions.

There will also be a variety of lawn games for you to play with friends and family.

Flower crowns will be available for £4, with the seed planting costing £2.

The rest of the activities are free with normal garden admission.
