THE Three Counties Showground is inviting you to show your flare and help make the Midsummer Garden Life Festival on June 23-25 into the Country’s most vibrant floral spectacular.

The new Midsummer Garden Life Festival, at Three Counties Showground in Malvern will be one of the first major events to take place after the Government’s planned ending of national Covid-19 restrictions on June 21.

Therefore, the Festival will be the perfect opportunity for Festival goers to come together and highlight the start of a brighter future, by wearing something fabulous, fun and flamboyant.

There will be a host of spot prizes awarded throughout the three days of the Festival for those who show their finest festival flare.

What’s more, you can win a pair of Early Access tickets to the Midsummer Garden Life Festival, by simply posting a fun photo of the fabulous summer outfit you plan to wear to the event, tagging in @MalvernShows with hashtag #MidsummerGardenLife.

The winner will be selected on June 16.

To help launch the Midsummer Festival Flare competition, florist to the stars, Jonathan Moseley, dropped in to the Three Counties Showground during what would have normally been the week of the hugely popular RHS Malvern Spring Festival.

Jonathan created a host of floral crowns, posies and bouquets for the Three Counties team to model, in preparation for the Festival fun.

Head of shows Diana Walton said: “It was wonderful to have Jonathan drop in to see us and to help us to launch our ‘Festival Flare’ competition.

"It has been a hard for us all here, as we would love to have been welcoming visitors to RHS Malvern Spring Festival this week, so, it was lovely to be able to dress up and have some fun and launch this celebratory competition for our special Midsummer Garden Life Festival.

"As lockdown restrictions will have just ended, we want visitors to have a colourful Midsummer party with beautiful plants, wonderful entertainment and delicious local produce, all set in the foothills of the Malvern Hills, in the specious comfort of our 90-acre showground.

"We will of course be following all the latest Government social distancing guidelines and are offering limited access to the Showground each day and therefore advance ticket bookings are necessary to avoid any disappointment."
