Guildford in Bloom Competitions

Every entry makes Guildford bloom

Guildford in Bloom has been running an annual gardening competition for over 40 years, inviting residents, businesses, and community groups across the borough to showcase their gardens, and help make Guildford a greener, more beautiful place to live.

​

The competition is free to enter and celebrates gardens and green spaces of all shapes and sizes, from colourful window boxes and front gardens, to allotments and shared community spaces. Open to gardeners of all experience levels, it aims to encourage environmental pride, biodiversity, and community spirit throughout Guildford.
