The recording is taking place in the award-winning Aspects, events and conference building at the Arboretum, which was named the VisitEngland Business Events Venue of the Year 2023.
For over seven decades, Gardeners’ Question Time has captivated listeners with expert advice and insights into all things gardening, becoming a broadcast institution. Today, it continues to draw an audience of approximately 2 million listeners each week, a testament to its enduring popularity.
Tickets for the live recording will go on sale at 10am on Friday 6 September. Tickets cost £4.50 each and will include one complimentary drink (wine, juice, tea, or coffee) upon arrival in Aspects. A parking charge of £4.00 per vehicle will also apply (bookable in advance), but attendees are welcome to arrive earlier in the day to enjoy the 150-acre Arboretum site.
“Whilst caring for the National Memorial Arboretum’s 150-acre estate keeps us incredibly busy, it’s a task that brings our team such pride,” said Paul Johnson, Grounds and Landscape Manager at the Arboretum.
"We’re looking forward to welcoming other passionate horticulturists to the Arboretum for this special evening. Even with a wealth of experience at our fingertips, I’m confident that we’ll still pick up some valuable tips and tricks.”
This is a rare opportunity for longstanding fans of BBC Radio 4 Gardeners' Question Time to experience the recording of the programme in person at the Arboretum.
