The South Philly 2021 Philadelphia Flower Show

The Philadelphia Flower Show dates are June 5 - 13, 2021, giving guests a chance to experience the beautiful vistas and rolling landscape of FDR Park. Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted – one of New York City’s famed Central Park designers – FDR Park is an inspiring venue that contributes to the splendor that the Flower Show is known for a while as easily accessible by public transportation and car.

The Show will span 15 acres of the Park’s footprint in its new location, expanding in size to nearly 450,000 square feet of exhibits, activities, and open space, a 45% increase from previous Flower Shows held inside the Philadelphia Convention Center. Each year, the Show contributes a beautiful kickoff to the spring growing season and provides an important economic impact on the region of more than $62 million.

An increased footprint in 2021 is intentional, as the Flower Show seeks to offer new experiences for its audience while also adhering to best practices regarding social distancing. Public safety is a critical component for the upcoming Show, focused on guests and staff alike. This year’s Show will feature reserved tickets for morning or afternoon sessions, with other health and safety requirements such as maximum occupancy limits, required masks, social distancing, and strict adherence to recommendations from the CDC and City/State health officials to keep all Flower Show attendees safe.

The departure from the Show’s typical late winter timing will allow for a spectacular presentation of the nation’s most looked-to gardening and floral attraction. The early June dates are at the height of the gardening season, allowing for new possibilities for guests to experience seasonal flora. The early summer timing, the outdoor location, the Show’s new District layout, more shopping opportunities, and outdoor-centric add-on activities allow a safe, exciting experience for all ages. The Flower Show will also offer exceptional beauty and increased diversity of flowers and plants, with the most designers ever showcased.

Each visitor who purchases a ticket attends a Flower Show special event or becomes a PHS member allows PHS to further its work planting trees, supporting neighborhood greening, establishing community gardens, providing job training, managing public gardens, and connecting people with horticulture and one another.
