Riyadh’s Yanbu Flower Festival Begins February 15th

Yanbu Flower and Garden Festival will take place from February 15th to March 9th, bringing an array of floral extravagance to Celebration Park in Yanbu Industrial City.

The festival has broken numerous world records in the past, including the record for the world’s largest flower carpet. This year’s edition will feature bird and butterfly gardens, with a disarmingly colourful array of floral displays and arrangements by young gardeners from within Saudi Arabia. 

The goals of the festival are intrinsically linked to the Saudi Green Initiative, an integral part of Vision 2030 that sets out the Kingdom’s strategies for sustainable environmental practices and conservation. Beyond the displays, there will also be spaces for local companies to showcase products and services, such as landscaping and flower arrangement.
