The November 2023 Festival of Gardens was truly inspirational and now we are fully under way with planning for the November 2025 Festival
2025 Festival Updates
Our garden festivals are run biennially and next year's festival will be on from Friday 14th to Sunday 16th November 2025.
To all passionate Rotorua gardeners!
We are actively seeking gardens now for next year's festival so please get in touch with us if you are interested in entering your garden. Trish is currently gathering information and photographing the gardens so we can begin collating the 2025 Festival of Gardens Visitor Guide early in 2025.
We are hugely grateful to Sandy Cleland at Palmers Rotorua who has once again agreed to be a sponsor and will be on board for the 2025 festival.
With the new Incorporated Societies Act 2022 coming into effect, we are required to re-register Rotorua Festival of Gardens Incorporated with the Companies Office. This process includes submitting a reviewed set of rules that meet the new act's requirements and the committee are currently working on this.
