Phoenix Garden, Community garden in St Giles, England

Phoenix Garden spans across an urban space between Soho and Covent Garden, providing a natural environment for local wildlife and plants in central London.

The garden was established in 1984 on a former car park, which previously served as a World War II bomb site damaged during the 1940 attacks.

The Phoenix Garden hosts regular social gardening sessions and an annual Agricultural Show, bringing together residents and workers from the local community.

Located north of Shaftesbury Avenue and east of Charing Cross Road, the garden welcomes visitors daily from sunrise to sunset without admission fees.

This garden remains the last surviving space from the original seven Covent Garden Community Gardens and has earned multiple Camden in Bloom competition awards.
