Now in its 24st year, the Bath Spring Flower Show was established to celebrate the centenery of Victoria Park. It is a real community effort with regional Floral Art Clubs, Women's Institutes and Townswomen's Guilds providing many of the displays as well as freshly baked cakes and jams. There's a Beekeepers Marquee and British Food and Farming have a marquee. Also expect music and dancing and a children's activities marquee. If you're already headed for Bath, this is a festive diversion.
