Shopping Galore
Home and Garden Show Ireland offers an exciting shopping experience with a diverse range of products for home and garden enthusiasts. The Plant Mall features thousands of plants from specialist nurseries, including rare and expert-grown varieties. Visitors can also explore the Trade Village, showcasing garden equipment, BBQs, furniture, sheds, and more. For unique finds, The Mall offers garden-themed products from small retailers, including everything from pots to scarves and soaps.
Additionally, the event highlights local craftsmanship and culinary delights. Art in the Garden presents garden-themed paintings by local artists, while the Food NI partnership brings together lots of artisan food producers, featuring local cheeses, balsamic vinegars, craft beers, and gins. The Craft NI Craft Village showcases high-quality handmade pieces and live demonstrations from local makers, making it a must-see for those interested in contemporary local crafts.
For the first time this year, a lot of the show’s shopping will be available under cover so you can explore as you please without fear of rain.
