For more than half a century, Four Oaks has brought the horticultural community together in the heart of Cheshire.
Set among our original working glasshouses, close to the iconic Jodrell Bank, the show is a welcoming meeting place for growers, producers, suppliers and horticultural professionals from across the UK and beyond.
Discover new plants, products, equipment and ideas. Meet the people behind them, share knowledge with industry experts and build valuable connections in the friendly, down-to-earth atmosphere that makes Four Oaks so special.
Whether you come to source, sell, learn or simply catch up with familiar faces, this is where horticulture meets, talks and grows.
Be part of Four Oaks 2027.
Four Oaks Trade Show is the UK’s leading international exhibition for the whole of commercial horticulture. From production to point-of-sale, the breadth of exhibits on display is the show’s strength, attracting a broad visitor base. The event takes place on a 23-acre nursery site in Cheshire UK, close to the Jodrell Bank Radio Telescope, covering an area of 13,000m² under glass with additional outdoor areas.
Massive displays of plant material form the heart of the show, with young plant producers using the platform to launch the next season’s lines. Mature stock and specimen plants from across Europe create magnificent showcase displays. Machinery, growing media, sundries, retail products, Christmas trees and merchandise, services and practically everything the sector can use or re-sell is found on the aisles at Four Oaks. More than 35% of participating companies are from overseas.
The visitor profile includes buyers from grower retailers, independent garden centres, garden centre chains, commercial growers, multiple retailers, wholesalers, mail order, online retailers, landscapers, landscape architects, garden designers, professional gardeners, groundsmen, farm shops, local authorities and florists.
What People Say About Four Oaks Trade Show
Adam McGowan
General Manager, Mclaren Nurseries Ltd''We absolutely love exhibiting at Four Oaks. This was our third year 2026 at the show and it has quickly become one of the highlights of our year.
Every year we come away having met new customers, strengthened relationships with existing ones and spent valuable time with suppliers and friends from across the horticultural industry. There’s a really friendly atmosphere to the show and, for us, it represents excellent value for money.
A huge part of what makes Four Oaks so enjoyable is the team behind it. They are genuinely brilliant to deal with — welcoming, helpful and always there if you need anything. You can tell how much work goes into making the show a success.
We’ve loved being part of Four Oaks over the last three years and we’re already looking forward to coming back again.''
Jennifer Brodie
Pro-Grow Rockdust Manager, Pro-Grow / Veolia ES (UK) Ltd"Having exhibited the same raw material at Four Oaks for nearly two decades now, I can honestly say this event is my high-light of my year. UK location, event layout, greenhouse venue, "free" refreshments and lunches, the staff who really are there to support you and, oh yes, the delegates with good business from so many angles, all add up to what I call the Four Oaks magic. Roll on next week!"
Ian Wright
Commercial Sales Director at Wyevale Nurseries“We’re delighted to be exhibiting once again at the 2023 Four Oaks Trade Show. It has become a significant and vital fixture in our annual events calendar, especially post-Covid, as we find our customers prefer to meet face-to-face more than ever now.”
Bob Haward
RH Dedicated Sales & Marketing, Representing UK Sales SAP Trees“A big Thank you for all your hard work looking after all of us exhibitors. The Goods in, the forklift Drivers, The Boys and Girls with constant refreshments,
The Cash and Carry for the things we forgot to bring to the show and everyone else beavering away behind the scenes and for making the Four Oaks show a unique family get-together, unlike other exhibitions.”
Pauline Lewington
Dalefoot Compost Sales Manager“Four Oaks is my favourite show of the year, it is so well organised and run, everyone is so helpful and welcoming. Dalefoot Composts have exhibited at Four Oaks for the past seven years and it is always great to speak to both existing customers and meet potential new ones. The show is always busy with lots of interesting visitors.”

9 Sept 2022“The 50th anniversary was a vibrant event, say exhibitors and visitors… Franchi Seeds' Paolo Arrigo said: "Four Oaks has a new lease of life." Petersfield's Neill Williams said the show was "way busier than expected" and he was rationing brochures by the end.”
