CBeebies star Justin Fletcher returns to Southport Flower Show this August

One of the UK’s most beloved children’s entertainers is set to delight families once again at this summer’s Southport Flower Show, taking place at Victoria Park from 14–17 August 2024.

Organisers have confirmed that Justin Fletcher, best known to millions as Mr Tumble from CBeebies, will return to the event on Sunday 17 August, performing two lively stage shows at 11am and 1pm in the Garden Theatre.

Justin, a BAFTA-winning performer, is renowned for his playful comedy, catchy songs and warm approach to working with children, including those with special educational needs through his long-running show Something Special. Earlier this year, he stepped back from CBeebies after an incredible 22 years on screen — making his return to Southport Flower Show all the more special for fans.

Alan Adams, General Manager of Southport Flower Show, said:

“We are delighted to have Justin returning again. He is very popular with families and it’s lovely to see so many children and adults singing along to Justin’s songs. This year he will be performing two stage shows at 11am and 1pm in the Garden Theatre. It’s always very busy so get there early!”

Justin will be joined by a host of celebrity guests across the four-day festival, including:

Kelvin and Liz Fletcher from ITV’s Fletchers’ Family Farm

Gardening experts David Domoney, Carole and George from Beechgrove Garden, and Nick Bailey

TV chefs and presenters Rosemary Shrager, Phil Vickery, and Cherish Finden

And Zack George – aka Steel from Gladiators

This year, Southport Flower Show is enhancing its programme of children’s activities with an interactive Children’s Trail and hands-on attractions including:

Forest School, supported by Gang of Elk
