About Bloemencorso, The Flower Parade Bollenstreek
Since the end of the second World War, The Dutch have gathered in Bollenstreek to celebrate the beauty of spring flowers.
During The Dutch Golden Age, flowers, specifically the Tulip, were said to be worth more than 3,000 guilders for one bulb.
Today, flowers remain the root of Dutch culture.
This year’s festival theme pays homage to just that, culture!
