Set within Charlotte and Donald's beautiful topiary garden, this much-loved event offers a wonderful opportunity to spend an afternoon exploring inspiring art, craft, and creativity in a unique setting.

Wander through the garden’s sculpted pathways and discover a diverse range of talented artists, makers, and craftspeople exhibiting and selling their work.

Whether you're looking for original artwork, handmade gifts, garden landscape inspiration, or simply a relaxing day out, there will be something for everyone to enjoy. Stallholders and exhibitors include Great Dixter, Charlotte Molesworth, Colin Griffith, Debbie Siniska, Adele Scantlebury, Isobel Spence, Old Yarns, Julia Sebline Brocante, Marie-Claire Erith Brocante, Pam Franklin, Lucy Heartwood, Bloomsbury Revisited, Carol Norton, Cheryl Summers, Polly Bennett and Forest Aston.

We're also pleased to welcome back Flying Fox, who will be serving drinks and homemade cakes throughout the event, making it the perfect place to pause and soak up the atmosphere. This year all garden entry donations will go towards Great Dixter’s scholarship training new gardeners.

Bring your friends and family, enjoy the gardens at their summer best, and celebrate the creativity of our local artistic community.

We look forward to welcoming you.
