15 things not to miss at York’s brilliant Bloom! Festival 2018

Has York ever looked as colourful?

With floral displays sprouting across the city, the first ever Bloom! Festival has transformed the streets into a kaleidoscope of flowers, fruit, veg and general leafy goodness.

The event marks the 250th birthday of the Ancient Society of York Florists – the oldest group of its kind in the world.
