Flower Festival
Once again, the city of Funchal is the stage for a sumptuous display that takes place between the 19th and 25th of April, during which the flower plays its most important role.
The highlight is the Flower Parade, with several groups of over a thousand participants who, bearing costumes depicting flowers, dancing to the sound of exquisitely selected music, through the main arteries of the city, along with fantastic floats, beautifully decorated with many different varieties of flowers of Madeira.
On Saturday morning, thousands of children participate in the Children's Parade, beginning at Avenida Arriaga, passing through Avenida Zarco, and arriving at the Town Hall Square to symbolically place their flower on the so-called "Wall of Hope", in an appeal for world peace. The wall set up ends with a release of pigeons and a children's show.
