Rendez-vous at the Gardens
Discover Bratislava’s hidden green treasures during the Weekend of Open Parks and Gardens. Historic grounds, private gardens, and usually inaccessible spaces will be open to the public for one special weekend.
The 17th annual Weekend of Open Parks and Gardens is a national cultural and educational event taking place from 6–8 June 2025. Its aim is to promote the importance of parks and gardens, inspire sustainable care, and invite the public to discover the beauty and value of our shared green spaces.
This year’s edition is held under the European theme “Stone in the Garden”, as part of the international initiative Rendez-vous aux Jardins, which unites events across Europe with the same message and visual identity.
What to Expect:
-
Guided tours of historic and modern gardens, both public and private
-
Family-friendly activities, lectures, workshops, and artistic performances
-
Insight into landscape architecture, garden design, and sustainability
-
Opportunities to explore normally inaccessible gardens and park areas
In 2024, the event welcomed visitors to 119 parks and gardens across Slovakia. Whether large or small, each participating location shares a common trait: respectful stewardship and care by its owners or managers.
Be part of this blooming weekend and reconnect with nature, culture, and community.
📍 Full program will be publised at www.vopz.sk and participating locations.
