ROSES & PLANTS FESTIVAL 2025

Saturday, 3rd & Sunday 4th of May 2025

The Rose Garden is a must-see from the Belle Époque for garden enthusiats. Béatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild gave it a prominent place to the south of the Villa, making the Rose Garden "the bow" of the hip she imagined for the gardens of the Villa Île de France, like a flowering spur between the Villefranche bay and the Baie des Fourmis.

It is around this flower that, for one weekend each year, we revive Béatrice's passion, both for horticulture and, above all, for roses.

 

By welcoming horticulturists, rose growers and nurserymen, who come to share with you their love for plants and advise you on the most beautiful of their creations, we also offer you the opportunity : 

- To discover these 9 gardens, classified as "Remarkables Gardens" by the Ministry of Culture.

- To enjoy an exhibit-sale in the French Garden, as well as a program of activities for all audiences, including children's workshops led by the Villa’s gardening team and thematic tours co-hosted by the head gardener and the tour guide.

 

Gems of the Belle Époque, the Villa and Ephrussi de Rothschild Gardens transform into a venue for concerts, performances, and exhibitions, providing a dream setting for exhibitors, artisans, and artists.

A unique place where plants, the sea, and the light interact and influence each other accprding to the hours seasons, and clouds.

 

We hope to see you on May 3rd and 4th for an unforgettable weekend of discovery and pleasure, amidst the gardens and fragrances!

Message from Muriel Mayette-Holtz

"Béatrice de Rothschild designed one of the most beautiful gardens in the world around her dream villa. Thanks to the quasi-subtropical climate of Saint-Jean Cap-Ferrat, she was able to bring together the most beautiful and astonishing plants that nature has created worldwide. The rose, queen of flowers and symbol of love, holds a central place here. That’s why, for the 13th Rose and Plant Festival, we invite you all to celebrate spring surrounded by the greatest rose growers and other diverse plants, while enjoying the many activities, each year different, that will help you learn and share knowledge about plants."
