Neuss Bids for 2026 North Rhine-Westphalia State Garden Show
The historic city of Neuss has put forth its bid to host the 2026 State Garden Show (Landesgartenschau) in North Rhine-Westphalia. The city's application, submitted to the Ministry for the Environment, Agriculture, Nature, and Consumer Protection of North Rhine-Westphalia, is currently under review by an independent evaluation committee.
The decision on the host city is expected to be made by the end of 2023, following a typical selection process where several candidate cities submit their detailed concepts and plans. If successful, a company named "LAGA 2026 Neuss GmbH" will be established within six weeks to implement the event.
Neuss has garnered broad support from politics and society for hosting the garden show. The former racetrack in the city is proposed as the location for the new citizens' park and the state garden show.
