Bedminster Secret Gardens
 Bedminster, Bristol
Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th June 2026
12.00noon to 5.00pm
When you think of Bedminster in central / south Bristol, what do you think of? Terraces of brick houses with tiny gardens, small yards and doors that open on to the street? Have you ever wondered what's hidden behind the houses? They might be small, but they're perfectly formed.
Get inspiration, enter a world of plants and see creative, productive and beautiful gardens. Take a look through the keyhole - you'll be surprised at what you find.
This summer, as part of the Bedminster Festival of Gardening, local people will be opening their back gates so that you can discover the secret gardens of Bedminster, Southville and Ashton. Many gardens will be opening for the first time. You can visit gardens on both days (some gardens will open on one day only - see website for details).
