Floriade

As Australia enters spring, the city of Canberra comes alive with the colour of over a million flowers of different varieties. Floriade is an annual spring event that features unique floral displays arranged over 100 sites throughout Canberra and combined with unique sculptures and art installations.

Floriade is a vibrant spring event that attracts both Australian and international tourists to the gardens of Canberra. Inspired by the giant Keukenhof flower garden in the Netherlands, the festival features colourful plants from across Australia and all over the world.

Being the largest flower festival in the Southern Hemisphere, Floriade has become the most popular annual event in the Australian Capital Territory. In addition to floral displays and art installations there are a wide range of live events including music, food and recreational activities. In addition, there is a ticketed addition called Floriade NightFest featuring live performances, movies and lighting displays.
