There is still time to take in a visit to the International Garden Festival at Chateau Chaumont-sur-Loire. It is one of the most popular events of the year here in the Loire Valley. The theme for 2017 is 'Flower Power'

Chaumont International Garden Festival review (2017) in pictures



The International Garden Festival at Chateau Chaumont-sur-Loire is one of the most popular events of the year here in the Loire Valley. We made our now annual visit on Friday under perfect blue skies and unusually high temperatures for this time of year. The theme for 2017 is 'Flower Power', here are our highlights...



























Our favourite garden - 'Monochrome Blanc'




We loved this year's festival but with the theme being 'Flower Power' disappointing not see a pair of flairs anywhere!

Chaumont-sur-Loire - 2017 Garden Festival opens today

Poster for 2017 Chaumont International Garden Featival

Chaumont International Garden Festival opens its doors for business today and even if you are not a gardener it is well worth a visit. We have visited for many consecutive years and have never been disappointed. The featured gardens are always interesting but the permanent displays are worth the walk through as is the art exhibitions...and you also have the chateau to visit.
