Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show is the largest annual flower and garden show in the Southern Hemisphere that takes place every March in Melbourne at the Royal Exhibition Building and Carlton Gardens. It’s a fantastic event for the whole family! Children can participate in fun coloring and craft activities, explore a stunning Disney fairy garden, and snap a picture with the “Human Pelican.” Gardening lovers will find plenty of inspiration from the floral, outdoor, and landscaping competitions, while everyone can enjoy a vast array of plants, flowers, cacti, and gardening displays in a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. One of my favorite highlights of the festival is Gardens by Twilight, where the Carlton Gardens transform for an enchanting evening filled with entertainment, delicious food, and breathtaking views of the gardens lit up with vibrant lights.
Event Highlights:
Show Garden Competition: Marvel at large-scale, visionary garden designs from top landscape designers showcasing innovation and trends for outdoor spaces.
The Great Hall of Flowers: Step into the transformed Royal Exhibition Building, featuring spectacular floral displays, innovative arrangements, and captivating installations by leading and emerging floral designers.
