Flower Parade 2026: Holland America Line

One of the events during Spring is the annual flower parade in the ‘bulbflowerbelt’ the Duin- en Bollenstreek. The parade has a history, it started in 1947, and is one of the biggest in The Netherlands. It is a main event for tourists. And a big presentation of bulbflower producing in this area. The Netherlands is well known for its flower production, all over the world. It is closely knit to the history and culture in this area of The Netherlands.

The LAPC #394 of this week is ‘history through the lens’.

      It is John, it starts with the fields end of Februay when Daffocils pop up, then follwed with the fragrance and floral of hyacinths. And now we enjoy the tulips, to close of the season. The parade is a highlight of this time of year, it is lovely to see and smell!
