David Beckham is set to co-design a garden with King Charles III for the 2026 RHS Chelsea Flower Show, making the former England football captain one of the most high-profile participants in the event's history. The collaboration is part of the King's ongoing commitment to garden conservation and horticultural education.
The garden, which is expected to reflect both the King's longstanding passion for sustainable gardening and Beckham's personal aesthetic, will be one of the centrepiece attractions at this year's show. The RHS Chelsea Flower Show is scheduled to take place in May 2026 at the Royal Hospital Chelsea in London.
King Charles has long been an advocate for organic gardening and biodiversity, with his own gardens at Highgrove House in Gloucestershire serving as a model for sustainable horticulture. Beckham, meanwhile, has spoken publicly about his love of gardening, which he has described as a personal passion alongside his professional commitments.
The Chelsea Flower Show, one of the most prestigious horticultural events in the world, attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year and is watched by millions on television. The royal and celebrity collaboration is expected to draw significant additional attention to the 2026 edition of the show.
