Since 1922, the Coronado Flower Show has brought our community together beneath the tent to celebrate beauty, tradition, and the joy of things grown by hand.
In 2026, we turn the page to a bolder chapter — Welcome to the Jungle. This year’s show invites visitors to step off the garden path and into a lush, immersive world where color, texture, light, and shadow run wild, blending the familiar with the unexpected.
Rooted in more than a century of heritage and alive with new inspiration, the Coronado Flower Show continues to grow—beautifully, creatively, and together.
Each year our show is made possible by the generous involvement of our community. From designing an arrangement, to bringing in yard clippings, to greeting guests and classifying plants, the possibilities for involvement are as diverse as a great garden. Click here to learn more about ways to become a part of the time-honored tradition.
