POSTPONEMENT OF 2020 FESTIVAL

Due to Government guidelines on Covid-19 pandemic, we have had to postpone the Laois Garden Festival for 2020.

The health and safety of our attendees, speakers, exhibitors and volunteers is paramount.

Laois Garden Festival will return in 2021.

We would like to thank the frontline workers for everything you are doing to keep us safe. Please look after each other, stay safe and we will see you in 2021.
