More Information (Dales Radio is not responsible for external websites)

ðŸŠī Settle Flowerpot Festival 2025 is in full bloom from 12th July to 7th September, transforming the charming Yorkshire Dales town into a whimsical open-air gallery of flowerpot creations.

Expect over 4,000 flowerpots arranged into quirky characters. Past displays have included Fred Dibnah scaling a chimney, Henry VIII and a headless Anne Boleyn and of course the brilliant Wallace & Gromit. It’s a joyful mix of humour, artistry, and community spirit.

🌞 Highlights include:

  • Three themed Flowerpot Trails (£3 each or £7 for all) with maps and quizzes
  • Workshops for children every Tuesday, Friday & Saturday morning in August
  • Free to explore—just wander the town’s nooks and crannies for delightful surprises
  • Accessible routes for pushchairs and wheelchairs, though some slopes may require a bit of puff

Whether you're a curious day-tripper or a seasoned pot-spotter, Settle’s streets promise a summer of smiles. Fancy weaving this into a day out or pairing it with a local café stop? I’d be happy to help plan your perfect visit.

 

Flowerpot Trails

It is recommend you purchase one of the Flowerpot Trails & Quiz.

There are three Trails covering different parts of the town.

Each Trail costs £3.00 and will take approx. 2hrs to complete or a set of 3 for £7

All the Trails are suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs
