The British Florist Association is delighted to be hosting the European Floristry School again in August 2026 — an inspiring creative experience designed for professional florists who want to learn, collaborate and create alongside their peers.
Special thanks go to the main sponsor of the European Floristry School:
Monday 10th - Wednesday 12th August 2026
This year’s workshop will be led by three exceptional and internationally renowned designers: Daniel Santamaria, Ffion Taverner and Stefan Van Berlo. Across three immersive days, you’ll work closely with these celebrated artists, gaining insight into their techniques, creative processes and distinctive styles.



Tuesday 11th August
6pm - 10pm
Join us for a relaxed and inspiring evening where good company, great food, and fresh ideas come together.
Guests will enjoy a delicious evening meal followed by a casual and engaging talk from Joe Horner, a local artist whose work with flowers offers a unique perspective beyond traditional floristry. With plenty of time to unwind, connect with others, and enjoy a drink or two, this event is the perfect opportunity to see flowers in a completely new light while soaking up a warm, sociable atmosphere.
Tickets for the evening are available to purchase separately - so you don't have to attend the workshops to join us for this fabulous evening of floral education and socialising.
For 2026, we’re excited to welcome you to The Victoria, Sheffield — a fantastic new venue for the European Floristry School. With its character, atmosphere and central location, it provides the perfect backdrop for both the creative workshops and the social side of the event. A wide range of nearby hotel accommodation, together with excellent city-centre transport links, ensures your visit is convenient and hassle-free.
Tickets are available for individual workshop days, or you can book a full three-day pass at a discounted rate for the complete workshop experience. Lunch is included each day, refreshments are available from the onsite bar, so all you need to bring is yourself and your toolbox.
Tickets for the Social Evening are available to buy separately.
