Chelsea in Bloom is one of our favourite events in London. The first thing you'll see when arriving at Sloane Square is the floral installation that sets the tone and the theme for the event. As you wander from Sloane Square along Sloane Street, Pavilion Road, Duke of York Square and on to the King's Road, many boutiques, hotels and galleries are adorned with blooms.
The Out of This World theme at Chelsea in Bloom 2026 sends Chelsea's shops, restaurants and hotels into orbit, with installations inspired by stars, planets, ancient myths and faraway worlds. Six large-scale central displays anchor the trail this year, with dozens of boutiques wrapping their own cosmic and otherworldly creations around them. We're sharing some of our favourite floral installations from Chelsea in Bloom 2026 in this post.
