One of Australia\u2019s longest-running flower festivals, Floriade <\/strong>bursts into bloom at the start of spring in Canberra<\/a>. Over one million blooms carpet the city\u2019s Commonwealth Park: tulips in magenta, gold, mauve and cobalt ripple across the grounds in a sea of colour. In recent years, a shift in public engagement has seen a growing number of community groups planting tulips throughout Canberra\u2019s suburbs to form a stunning tulip trail. Bring a picnic, the kids and your furry friends \u2013 there\u2019s something for everyone during Floriade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
