Expression of Interest
2026 Bay of Plenty Garden and Art Festival

We’re now inviting Expressions of Interest for the 2026 Bay of Plenty Garden and Art Festival! This form is for gardeners, artists, or artists who wish to exhibit in their own gardens or galleries who were not part of the 2024 Festival and would like to be considered for the 2026 event. Once you’ve submitted your Expression of Interest, our Festival team will review all applications during the Festival year (2026). We take the time to thoughtfully consider each submission, and everyone will receive a response, whether successful or not. Please note that responses will be sent closer to the Festival date. We can’t wait to discover the new gardens, art, and creative talents waiting to be shared!
