Every 2 years the Grand-Place of Brussels is covered with a flower carpet of begonias. The carpet of 70 m x 24 m is composed by about 120 volunteers, with nearly 1 million flowers in less than 4 hours.
Theme of the 2024 Flower Carpet
This year an ephemeral creation by Océane Cornille will take over the Grand-Place for four days. This Liège-based street art artist has come up with Rhizome, a tribute to Brussels and Art Nouveau. For the 23rd Flower Carpet, dahlias will take over from begonias.
