Tens of thousands of people attended the Southport Flower Show this week, with wildlife photographer and Strictly Come Dancing winner Hamza Yassin headlining the main stage on Saturday. Yassin, who won the 2022 series of the BBC dance competition, also participated in a meet and greet with gardeners, a book signing, and stopped to chat and take pictures with attendees.
Yassin was among several celebrity guests at the four-day event at Southport's Victoria Park, including Bake Off's Cherish Finden and Nick Bailey from BBC Gardeners' World. The show featured award-winning show gardens, a grand floral marquee, and displays from local schools and charities.
The Southport Flower Show is an annual event that attracts visitors from across the region. This year's show ran from Thursday to Sunday, with a variety of attractions and activities for all ages.
