McKellen to open Blenheim Palace Flower Show

ACTOR Ian McKellen is to open this year's Blenheim Palace Flower Show (June 17-19). 

‘I am really looking forward to visiting #BlenheimPalace on June 17,’ he says. ‘It is 300 years since the birth of Capability Brown. It will be intriguing to see how he transformed the palace's parkland and how it looks today.’

A record number of floral and garden exhibitors will be taking part this year at the palace’s fourth #flowershow at the World Heritage site in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, which was the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. 

At the heart of the show will be a 20,000 square-foot Grand Floral Pavilion featuring more than 30 floral displays and a large selection of flowers and plants from some of the UK's finest growers. 

The show will be also feature a selection of gardens created by some of the UK's leading designers, including one designed by students.

Advanced tickets are priced from £12 for adults and £5.50 for children. Concessions and family tickets are also available.
