Tickets are now on sale for the 2026 Middlewick House Open Garden, set to take place on 6th and 7th June.
The popular event, hosted at the home of Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason and his wife Annette, will this year require advance ticket purchases only to help manage traffic and ensure a smooth experience for all visitors.
Adult tickets are priced at £20, carers £10, while children aged 12 and under can attend for free. Visitors arriving by car must also book a parking permit, which will be sent out a week before the event.
Last year’s open garden attracted 15,000 visitors and raised over £200,000 for the Wiltshire Bobby Van Trust and Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance. Bobby Van Director Jennie Shaw said: “By limiting admission to advance ticket sales, we will be able to ensure everyone has an enjoyable weekend. As ever, we are deeply grateful to Nick and Annette for opening up their home and welcoming everyone in. Tickets will sell quickly, so I’d advise people to book as soon as possible.”
Each year, the couple open their 18th-century country house near Corsham to classic car owners and enthusiasts from across the country. Visitors can admire Mason’s priceless Ferrari collection, often including his iconic 250 GTO, alongside a wide range of classic cars brought by clubs and owners nationwide.
The event also features craft stalls, a food court with a sausage barbecue, and live music, making it a highlight of the summer calendar for families and car enthusiasts alike.
