Flower Parade Netherlands 2023 - When & Where
In spring it's time for the Flower Parade Netherlands 2023. The name in Dutch is Bloemencorso Bollenstreek. The flower decorated floats follow a route around Keukenhof. In this post you read when the Bulb Flower Parade takes place and where you can watch it.
When does the spring flower parade Netherlands 2023 take place?
The Dutch love to celebrate flowers and color. There are many Dutch flower parades and fortunately they all take place at a different time. Every season has its own flower. The Zundert Flower Parade Netherlands 2023 takes place at the end of summer. Dahlias bloom from August till far into the autumn season. These make the perfect flowers for the Corso in Zundert.
Mid-April the tulips and hyacinths bloom. Tulips are quite fragile and you won't see them that often in the Bloemencorso Bollenstreek. The hyacinths are much firmer. Besides, they can be used in different ways. You can use a full flower with stem or just a single petal as you can see in this post.
In 2023 you can view the famous street parade of the Flower Parade Bulb Region on Saturday 22 April 2022. Over 20 floats decorated with spring flowers will be participating in the flower procession this year.
We go behind the scenes of the flower parade from Wednesday 19 April till Friday 21 April 2022. On Friday afternoon there's a special bike tour to the evening flower parade.

Where can I see the Bulb Flower Parade Netherlands 2023?
My tip of the day: go see this evening flower parade on Friday 21 April. It's amazing and not so crowded. The nicely scented and colorfully decorated floats leave the huge hall around 2 PM. They head for Noordwijkerhout. In this cosy town they start the party at noon.
On Saturday morning 22 April around 9:30 AM the bulb flower parade starts in Noordwijk. It follows a route through the flower villages Voorhout, Sassenheim, Lisse, Hillegom, Bennebroek, Heemstede. At 21:30 the spring flower parade Netherlands 2023 ends in Haarlem.
On Sunday 23 April you can see the floats displayed on the market square of Haarlem.
