Marton cum Grafton Open Gardens & Summer Festival - Marton Cum Grafton Village Hall

The much-loved Marton cum Grafton Open Gardens and Festival returns on Sunday 21st June 2026, offering visitors a vibrant summer day out celebrating gardens, community, and village life.

Guests are invited to explore over 15 private gardens across this picturesque North Yorkshire village, each bursting with colour and character. Visitors can enjoy a relaxed self-guided walk or make use of the courtesy bus service running throughout the day.

This year’s event introduces exciting new family-friendly attractions, including a farm animal petting area and a large inflatable slide, adding even more entertainment for younger visitors and families. Alongside the gardens, the event will feature a wide range of attractions, including:

- Church floral displays
- Local art exhibition
- Vintage and supercar showcase
- Traditional village fête with small animals and games

Food and drink will be available throughout the day, including hearty lunches, BBQ sausages, homemade cakes, WI teas, ice creams, and a Pimm’s and Airstream bar.

All proceeds from the event will support valuable local community projects, helping to sustain and enhance village life.

A much-loved fixture in the local calendar, the event offers the perfect blend of beautiful gardens, family fun, and traditional English summer atmosphere.
