Friday 27th February to Sunday 1st March, 10.00am-4.00pm
Celebrate the first signs of spring this February at Wentworth Woodhouse’s very first Snowdrop Festival.
Visitors are invited to wander the gardens together as carpets of delicate snowdrops begin to appear*, and discover new corners of the estate as it starts to wake up after winter. For the first time, visitors can also explore the Community Garden as it opens to the public, offering even more to see and do across the weekend.
The festival also marks the launch of our new Garden History Tour, alongside a programme of optional add-ons offering visitors the chance to explore the gardens in greater depth this season.
Need to refuel? The Camellia House will be open, 10.00am-4.00pm, during the festival serving an assortment of drinks and snacks.
Adult: General Admission
Child: Free
Accompanying Carer: Free
