Zundert Flower Parade features giant dahlia‑covered floats in the Netherlands

Zundert, Netherlands – The town’s annual Bloemencorso flower parade rolled through the streets on Saturday, featuring a series of giant dahlia floats that drew thousands of spectators. Constructed by local volunteers over several months, the elaborate displays measured up to 12 metres in height and were entirely covered in fresh dahlia blossoms, showcasing the community’s horticultural skill and dedication.

Organisers said the parade, which has been a tradition since the 1930s, attracted visitors from across the country and highlighted Zundert’s reputation as a leading host of large‑scale floral events. The volunteers, coordinated by the Bloemencorso committee, completed the floats in a coordinated effort that combined design, engineering and horticulture, reinforcing the town’s cultural heritage and supporting the local tourism economy.
