Event Details

> Please note that we expect the San Francisco Rose Society to host their annual Mother’s Day Rose Show in 2026. It takes place every year on Mother’s Day, but it has not yet been confirmed for 2026 as of 4/21/26. 

Here’s what happened in 2025:
Please join us this year at our popular rose show at the historic County Fair Building Hall of Flowers in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. On display will be a variety of roses, including hybrid teas, floribundas, grandifloras, shrubs, old garden roses, and more grown in San Francisco. We will also have rose arrangements on display designed by our members.  We may offer cut show roses for sale around mid-afternoon.

Presented by San Francisco Rose Society
