Includes entrance to Henry Moore Exhibition at Kew Gardens
Summer 2026 sees Kew Gardens present the largest ever outdoor exhibition of works by Henry Moore. This landmark event includes 30 sculptures around the Gardens as well as a collection of significant artworks, showcased in the Shirley Sherwood Gallery, encompassing Moore’s entire career. The exhibition weaves together key themes of Moore’s work, offering visitors a unique opportunity to experience the beauty and richness of Moore’s art and its connection to nature.
Wander through beautiful glasshouses such as the iconic Palm House, home to an exotic rainforest; explore different climate zones at the Princess of Wales Conservatory; or be amazed by the giant lily pads at the Waterlily House.
For a bird’s-eye view of the gardens, walk along the 18-metre high (59ft) Treetop Walkway.
Enjoy floral displays from more than 60,000 plants along the Great Broad Walk Borders or spot some of the 14,000 trees in the colourful Arboretum.
The gardens also include the ornate Great Pagoda and Kew Palace – the former summer residence of King George III, which is open in the summer months.

Suggested itinerary by coach
Day 1
Travel to London and Kew Gardens with Henry Moore
Arrive in London, and visit Kew Gardens,
Any time of the year is a great time to visit Kew Gardens as you can find a ton of events throughout the year.
If you are particularly interested in seeing the plants bloom, then the perfect time to visit is in spring, when the temperatures are getting warmer, leaves and plants start to grow again and flower buds start to blossom.
In summer, Kew Gardens is in full bloom and attracts visitors with a full host of art exhibitions
Even the cold season is worth the visit. Thanks to the warm temperatures of the greenhouses, you can see plants blossom all year round. Experience an oasis of tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of central London or enjoy the changing colours of autumn around the gardens.
Continue to your hotel for dinner and overnight.
