RHS Show at Tatton Park discount for readers

Jul 9 2009 by Lois York, Chester Chronicle

THIS year’s RHS Show at Tatton Park is buzzing with everything you need to keep busy bees entertained over the summer holidays.

Children aged 16 and under can also visit the show for free when accompanied by an adult, so there’s never been a better time to visit.

To celebrate this, the RHS is offering Chronicle readers a special discount of £4 off the gate price for the public days of the show – July 23-26. Costing £20 each, the tickets provide entrance to this world-class flower show.

From flowerbeds to films, crazy golf to a balloon garden, there’s a whole range of new and exciting activities on offer.

Among the horticultural delights children can enjoy for free at their year’s show is the Bees, Bugs and Blooms activity tent, where the young ones can make their own insect puppets.

They can also get busy in the Waitrose outdoor kitchen, go wild for super-size flowers, wander around the enchanting Peter Pan and Noah’s Ark flower beds or veg out watching a screening of Bee Movie and much more.

For all this and more download your buzzy bees map of what to see and do to plan your trip in advance at www.rhs.org.uk/tattonpark.

To book tickets call 0844 209 0358 and quote NEWCHR.

Tickets must be booked 24 hours prior to the day of visit, and tickets can be collected on the gate. A £1.75 booking fee applies. Ticket prices excluding the discount are £22 in advance and £24 on the gate.

July 22 is RHS Preview Day, reserved for RHS members and partner organisations. The show is open from 10am-6.30pm, except Sunday, July 26 , when it closes at 5pm.
