Every year, more than 160,000 people pour in to the grounds of the Chelsea Royal Hospital and file past exhibits which showcase the very latest trends in floristry and gardening.

Having been held since 1913 the festival is considered a must-see for both gardening enthusiasts and casual London tourists – as long as they can get a ticket that is.

Less than a month out from this year's event, tickets are predictably running low, but that doesn't mean you should give up. There are still a few general sale tickets left, plus hospitality options that will get you into those hallowed grounds.

Below, we've outlined exactly how to get tickets to this year's Chelsea Flower Show, as well as how much a space costs, so let's dig in.
