Bellheim Garden Days (BeGaTa)
Large garden, plant, decoration, and lifestyle market in Spiegelbachpark over the Pentecost weekend with over 100 exhibitors
About Bellheim Garden Days
The Bellheim Garden Days (BeGaTa) are by far the most important garden market format in the Southern Palatinate and a significant date in the event calendar of the Bellheim administrative district. The organizer is the Bellheim Trade Association, which launched the format several years ago and has been continuously expanding it ever since.
Venue Spiegelbachpark
The Spiegelbachpark in Bellheim is a spacious park with old trees, water features, and meadows — the ideal setting for a garden market. Exhibitors set up their stalls along the paths and on the meadows, creating a continuous exhibition area where visitors can stroll at their leisure.
Exhibitors and Product Range
Over a hundred exhibitors cover an unusually wide range of products: plant providers with perennials, trees, shrubs, and roses; garden designers with furniture and sculptures; potters with ceramic vessels; artisans with wood, metal, and stone; wine merchants with Palatinate wines; beekeepers; cheese vendors; providers of outdoor fashion and lifestyle products.
Program and Lectures
An accompanying program of lectures, workshops, and hands-on activities complements the market. Topics include sustainable gardening, plant pruning, medicinal herbs, beekeeping, and vegetarian garden cuisine. A stage provides musical accompaniment.
Prices
Admission 5 Euros per day, 10 Euros for a multi-day ticket. Children up to a certain age enter free of charge. Catering is available at the gastronomy stands.
