About Floating Garden

Floating Garden is a Trusted Tagvenue Partner, validated by the Tagvenue team with a record of successful bookings on the platform.

Working with Argent UK, and with a 20-year lease for our mooring on the Regent’s Canal, the Floating Garden aims to create a new destination for learning and experiencing the natural world on water.

We have created a garden that is a unique outdoor learning space for local young people, families, residents and employees, a space to relax and to connect with nature. We provide opportunities for hands-on, innovative learning, focusing on water and biodiversity, discovering wildlife and increasing well-being. When the barge is not in use by our community programs, it is available for hire for unique events, right on the canal.
