Don’t miss out on Floriade!
Floriade – the largest flower festival in the Southern Hemisphere with over one million bulbs and annuals, launched for 2009 on September 12 and runs for an entire month. This year the theme is Mind, Body and Soul.
The event boasts an exciting entertainment program with local, national and international performers on show, kids’ activities, garden workshops, exhibitions, displays and plenty of food.
It also encompasses Floriade NightFest – five nights filled with outdoor movie screenings, music and more. But as the music plays and the wine flows it is the flowers that are the star of the show, planted out in eye-catching and unusual designs for all to admire.
Floriade is being held in Commonwealth Park, Canberra. The event commenced on September 12, 2009 and finishes on October 11. Gates are open from 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday, and 9am to 5.30pm on weekends and public holidays.
Tickets are free for the general festival and $20 per adult and $10 per child for the NightFest.
