  • About the event

    On the heels of a successful 2017 show that drew 42,000-plus visitors to experience diverse gardens, activities, shopping and events, the 2018 Chicago Flower & Garden Show will feature display gardens and vignettes showcasing roses, tulips, edibles, small spaces, water features and urban design. Visitors will experience gardens from the Chicago High School for Agricultural Sciences, Racine Zoo, Rosborough Partners, Suntory Plants, Chicago Sculpture Exhibit, Aquascape, Women’s Journey in Fiber and more, as well as window boxes from Garden Clubs of Illinois and tablescapes by noted event and floral designers. 

    Garden Gourmet cooking demonstrations, a public photography competition, Potting Parties and the popular Kids’ Activity Garden will return, along with the show’s all-new Get Growing Presentation Series, featuring interactive how-to presentations, workshops and seminars led by experts from the Chicago area and across the country.

    In 2018, we’re taking our commitment to Inspire, Educate and Motivate even further by partnering with Bernie’s Book Bank.  A Lake Bluff, IL based non-profit organization whose mission is to increase book ownership among at-risk children throughout Chicagoland. 

    Bernie’s Book Bank will help set the tone for an expanded show (in a shorter time frame), featuring 20+ experiential gardens and a newly redesigned Home & Garden Marketplace.  Bernie’s Book Bank is the leading provider of quality children’s books in the Chicagoland area. Guided by the belief that reading is a vital way for children to change their lives for the better, they deliver quality books to at-risk youth from birth through sixth grade.
