highlight
MADEIRA FLOWER FESTIVAL
From April 16th to 22nd take place the Flower Festival
celebrations. This year under the theme “Madeira – Enchanted
Spring”, is most certainly one of the most beautiful events yearly
celebrated and one of the largest tourist billboards and attractions
of Madeira Island.
On Saturday morning is held the Children’s Parade, in which over
a thousand children carry a flower from Avenida Arriaga towards the
Praça do Município and place it on a wall filled with symbolism - the
“Wall of Hope”.
The initiative takes place for more than three decades,
associating childhood innocence and the fragility of flowers with
the symbolism of peace and hope for a better World. The ceremony
culminates with the release of doves and a children’s show.
On Sunday afternoon the highlight of the Festival goes to the
Great Flower Parade, with splendorous allegoric floats decorated
with flowers and hundreds of participants, mostly children, through
the main streets of our city, displaying numerous typical floral
species of the island and marvelling all of those who attend this
beautiful parade.
This event also includes the traditional Flower Exhibition at
Largo da Restauração, floral carpets and the famous flower Charolas,
which are displayed and may be visited throughout the Avenida
Arriaga in downtown Funchal.
