Brussels Carpet Of Flowers

Enjoy a short break to Belgium, combining the stunning sight of the Brussels Carpet of Flowers with time in medieval Bruges and elegant Ghent. On this fantastic coach holiday, we’ll first visit the cosmopolitan capital of Brussels where the biennial Carpet of Flowers event takes place. Famous throughout the world, the Grand Place is transformed into a work of art as around 700,000 flowers are planted to create an intricate pattern – a true spectacle to see! With months of preparation before the event, hundreds of dedicated and experienced gardeners put together this giant floral jigsaw in under four hours.

We’ll also spend time in the iconic cities of Bruges and Ghent, enjoying the fantastic architecture and pretty streets. We’re sure there’ll be time to sample some delicious Belgian chocolate treats on the way too!

Local departure by coach, then to Brussels for a three-night stay.

We spend the day in Brussels, Belgium’s cosmopolitan capital, where you can enjoy its Gothic architectural treasures and multicultural roots.

The highlight of the day is the Carpet of Flowers exhibition. Once you pass through one of the seven entrances to the Grand Place, you will be presented with an extraordinary spectacle. Stretching out over 300 square metres, the magnificent floral display, made up of begonias, dahlias, grasses and bark, glows with colour and intricate detail. It takes months of preparation but has to be put in place in just one day. The best views are gained from the balcony of the city hall (entrance at additional cost).
