Things to do in London: Chelsea and Belgravia in Bloom to flower over Spring bank holiday

Chelsea and Belgravia are poised to be London’s most floral neighborhoods this month, as their In Bloom festivals flourish once again.

Each spring, the lavish neighborhoods flower with petal filled displays sprouting up on every corner.

Local shops, restaurants and even hotels in the areas all show off their green thumbs as they grow spectacular floral displays inside and out.

Both events are set to take place later this month over the spring bank holiday. Starting on May 19, Belgravia in Bloom will run until May 26, while Chelsea in Bloom will wrap up a day earlier on May 25.

While the free flower festivals will be on at the same time, they are not the same event as each has their own theme.

Chelsea’s 2025 theme is Flowers in Fashion which aims to highlight the area’s significance as one of the world’s most stylish destinations.

The Belgravia in Bloom festival will be themed around the different seasons and so it is expected to have installations reflecting spring, summer, autumn and winter vibes.

Chelsea in Bloom has been an annual floral event in Chelsea for the past two decades. 2025 will mark the 10th edition of the Belgravia based festival.
