While we would have liked to report otherwise, in 2021 Bloemencorso Bollenstreek will also be unable to parade through the streets of the Bulb district from Noordwijk to Haarlem. This week the executive committee of the Bloemencorso Foundation has had no other choice but to take this sad decision. The COVID-19 Pandemic {...}
Bloemencorso Bollenstreek relies on hyacinths. These highly fragrant bulb flowers were always traditionally grown in the bulb district. The bulbs are planted in October and in the spring harvested to decorate the floats. Here the Board of Bloemencorso Bollenstreek Foundation sybolically plants the first bulbs by hand to mark the start of the following year's event.
The physical parade has been cancelled for 2021. Over the next weeks we will present an alternative programme
The Bloemencorso of the Bollenstreek is the largest spring festival in The Netherlands. This colourful, fragrant spectacle is celebrated annually during one week of the year by more than one million visitors. The main highlight of the event is the Corso Saturday when the colourful floats and the luxury vehicles decorated in masses of flowers travel the 42 km route. The addition of cheerful music from the marching bands and amusement on and around the floats all contribute to the excitement of the event as experienced by the stream of visitors from home and abroad.
The Bollenstreek Bloemencorso can be followed via our Livestream. Watch and enjoy the colourful splendour from the comfort of your easy chair as the parade traverses the Bollenstreek.
The Golden Triangle is the powerful synergy between the bulb fields, the Keukenhof and the Bloemencorso Bollenstreek. As showpiece for the trade, we show respect for the traditions of our area and the crops from the land.
