The Park Garden Trail
- Sunday, 22nd June 2025!

20+ Open Gardens and green spaces every two years in Nottingham's uniquely fabulous Park Estate.

The 26th Park Garden Trail will be held on Sunday, 22nd June, 2025.

The last PGT was in June 2023, returning after a 4 year absence. We loved welcoming our visitors again! It was a wonderful day and another record year - an amazing £38,000 was raised for charity. We are very grateful to the many people who help to make PGT such a success, especially to you, our visitors.

A warm welcome awaits you at the Park Garden Trail, held every two years in Nottingham's historic Park Estate - the former deer park of Nottingham Castle, right next to the city centre. PGT has been running since 1986, and features many open gardens and green spaces, cream teas, strawberries and fizz, homemade cakes, children's activities, live entertainment, bar and food stalls.

Our national obsession with gardening dates back centuries; it can be seen as creating an extension to our homes by nurturing an expression of beauty through nature, and is considered a part of our cultural heritage. Over the past 30+ years in The Park, many thousands of people have participated in this quintessentially English event, which follows the tradition of The National Gardens Scheme.

Please spend an afternoon with us in the Victorian heart of Nottingham and enjoy visiting a wide range of gardens and landscapes - some large, some small and some secret - while helping us to raise funds for local charities. Walk our wide leafy pavements, find the immense hidden tunnel, catch glimpses of caves set into the sandstone cliffs, and view the unique architecture of houses that have stood here for over 150 years. Newcastle Circus, one of The Park’s community spaces, will host a number of activities, some specially for children. Local restaurants and caterers will be on hand with food stalls, beer and wine.

​We look forward to welcoming you!
