At Benares, we absolutely love an event! Whether we're hosting, partnering up, or lucky enough to be invited, it's always a delight to be in attendance. This year, our Partnerships Executive, Ivo Wright, had the pleasure of attending the Hampton Court Flower Show—a landmark event filled with stunning show gardens. Many thanks to the Royal Horticultural Society for hosting such a magnificent event! It was a brilliant opportunity for us to connect and share insights. The Hampton Court Palace Flower Show is the largest outdoor festival of flowers in the UK. Here's to more events and partnerships in the future! 🌿✨ 💐 #Hamptoncourtflowershow #Flowershow2024 #RoyalHorticulturalSociety #Partnerships #Networking #Hospitality
