It is undoubtedly the most emblematic event in the Madeira archipelago and also the most colourful. For several weeks, Funchal is filled with the scent of flowers and the joy of thousands of tourists who come here.
The construction of the Wall of Hope, symbolised by the placement of flowers by children, and the floral carpets that stretch across the streets are unique moments of this event.
This year, the Flower Festival brings something new: two incredible parades, on 3 and 17 May, with around a thousand participants of all ages, are the highlight of the parade of scents that enchants our main city.
And to further enhance these weeks of festival, the Flower Festival is brightened by a car parade, consisting of classic cars, which combine their incomparable beauty with the simplicity and charm of floral arrangements.
A mix of magic not to be missed!
