There is a fantastic line up of Speakers for our 2026 Garden Fair across Friday and Saturday.

Scotland Grows' Garden Theatre

Scotland Grows publisher, M.T. O'Donnell, and host of our 'In Conversation' programme in this year's Scotland Grows' Garden Theatre said, "Scotland Grows is proud to be part of the continued development of Scone Palace Garden Fair. Having supported the show since its inception, it has been wonderful to see it grow and strengthen as a leading event in Scotland’s gardening calendar.

This year's talks and demonstration programme once again offer expert insight, and the opportunity for gardeners to ask questions and take home practical advice for their own gardens. It is a wonderful event for sharing knowledge, celebrating plants, and bringing the Scottish gardening community together.”
