Jersey Battle of Flowers
st Helier, Jersey 9-10 August
a major highlight in this channel island’s varied summer calendar of events, the Jersey Battle of Flowers started from humble beginnings in 1902, to celebrate the royal coronation, and has grown to become one of the largest floral carnivals in europe. colourful and ornate floats, decked with flowers, will form part of the Day and Moonlight parades, alongside other activities and events, making this weekend a spectacular floral extravaganza for the 21st century.
