Each day runs from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm.

Do I need to book for specific talks?

You do not need to book for demonstrations, tours or talks at Jekka’s HerbFest. Each day will have a number of events occurring at the same time across the site whether a Jekka’s Herbetum tour, a demonstration or a chat in the gardening tent.
