A celebration of growing, gardens and community
13 - 14 June 2026 11 am - 4 pm
This year we're asking all visitors to start their journey around Lady Bay at either of the centrally located gardens at 28 PIERREPONT ROAD and 45 PIERREPONT ROAD.
Event programmes will only be available at these two sales points - you can either buy them (card or cash) or, if you have them, get them in exchange for your online ticket(s). Admission is £5 per person (under-18s free) and covers both Saturday & Sunday.
Advance tickets are available via TryBooking
Lady Bay is served half-hourly by the NCT Green Line number 11 bus - alight at the Primary School stop.
There is good access by bike, including from north of the river via the new Waterside Bridge.
Car parking is available at Nottingham Rugby Club (on-street parking also available).

Lady Bay Open Gardens was founded in 1989 to raise funds for FIELDS, a local campaigning group that was set up to fight the threat of a 4th Trent Crossing at Adbolton, and any other threats to the green belt around Lady Bay. With FIELDS now dormant, the current arrangement is for profits from the Open Gardens to be handed over to the Lady Bay Community Fund to assist with worthwhile local causes.
