We’re excited to confirm the Warwick in Bloom 2024 competition is now open!
The 2024 competition features 11 competitive categories and includes categories for shops, commercial premises, pubs and B&Bs, and schools, in addition to the familiar gardens, window boxes, hanging baskets and community planting categories.
