Shropshire Petal Fields Opens Newport

24 July 2025 - Newport Shropshire

what's happening on the day

Shropshire’s successful flower field experience returns in Newport this summer for 10 days.

Due to the exceptionally dry spring we’ve had to water our plants four times more than usual but we have used winter rain water to reduce our environmental impact. We’re currently using sheep to mow the field that will be used for the event car park!”

The solar powered robots used to drill and weed the flowers are the only ones in the UK doing this practice. The use of the robots means no one will set foot on the field until the flower field opens to visitors on July 24th (New Date, due to heatwav).

A visit to Shropshire Petal Fields is a spectacle you’ll never forget,” said Ashley Evers-Swindell from Shropshire Petals. “As you wander through the layers of pink, blue, purple, yellow, and white delphiniums, sunflowers, and wildflowers, you’ll feel like you’re in a fairy-tale and the stresses of modern life will slip away. What makes this year even more special, is that we’re celebrating Shropshire Petals’ 20th anniversary.

Once you’ve strolled around the field and taken in each layer of colour, you can let little ones explore nature in the Wild Woodland Walk, buy your own freshly cut flower bouquets, pose for photos at the focal points, and enjoy drinks and refreshments at the on-site café.

The flower field will be open daily from July 24th until August 3rd (New Date, due to heatwave). Opening times are 10am – 5pm. When booking, you have the choice of a morning ticket (10am – 1pm) or an afternoon ticket (1pm – 5pm). There are three dog days planned on 30th July, 2nd and 3rd August, plus a Sunset evening on 25th July.

Professional photographers will be able to purchase a photography pass so they can take commercial images, and if you are interested in holding a corporate sunset event, get in touch with Shropshire Festivals.
