Every two years, Brussels transforms its Grand Place into a breathtaking sea of color with the Flower Carpet, and 2024 promises to be no exception. This vibrant tradition, dating back to 1971, will once again showcase the artistic brilliance and horticultural mastery of the region. Thousands of carefully arranged begonias will come together to form intricate patterns, telling a unique story through their vivid hues.
As the sun sets over the cobblestones, the carpet takes on an almost magical quality, illuminated by the surrounding historic buildings. It’s not just a visual feast but a celebration of community, culture, and creativity. Whether you’re a local or a traveler, experiencing this event in person is unforgettable. Mark your calendars for August 2024 and prepare to be enchanted by one of Brussels’ most beloved traditions.
