Monty Don: A Journey Through British Gardens
When: 25th April 2026
Location: Edinburgh Playhouse
Britain’s best-loved gardener Monty Don returns with a brand-new show: A Journey Through British Gardens. Coming to the Edinburgh Playhouse on 25th April 2026.
Using beautiful imagery and stories, Monty explores the landscapes, traditions, and tales that reveal who we are through the gardens we create. After years travelling the world — from Japan and America to Italy, the Adriatic, Spain, and the Mediterranean — he now turns his focus homeward.
From Scotland’s northern tip to the Cornish coast, Monty uncovers what our gardens reveal about us as a nation: our ingenuity, eccentricity, and enduring connection to the natural world.
He’ll take audiences from Alnwick Gardens and Beatrix Potter’s Lake District farmhouse to the rewilded walled garden at Knepp, celebrating the beauty, creativity, and diversity of Britain’s landscapes.
Warm, wise, and deeply rooted in the soil of Britain, Monty invites you to reflect on the gardens that have shaped our story — and discover the ways we continue to find ourselves in the earth beneath our feet.
