Este Flower Festival: The Gardens of Beatrice
From April 17 to 19, 2026, Este will bloom again with the XXIII edition of Este in Fiore, the floral and plant exhibition that has been celebrating the Venetian spring for over twenty years, transforming the city into a widespread garden. Born to enhance regional and national floriculture, the event is now a meeting point capable of uniting nature, culture, and history in a single immersive experience.
The streets of the historic center, the squares, and the Castle Gardens will be animated by floral settings, artistic installations, and sensory paths that engage with the Este architectural heritage. While wandering through colors and scents, visitors will discover a city that welcomes and surprises, thanks also to encounters, cultural, and experiential activities designed for all ages.
The 2026 edition is dedicated to “The Gardens of Beatrice”, a tribute to the 800th anniversary of the death of Beata Beatrice I d’Este, a figure of harmony and spirituality. The theme invites a rediscovery of the garden as a contemplative place, a space for regeneration, and a symbol of a possible balance between man and nature.
An invitation to let oneself be enchanted by the magic of flowers and the history of a city that, every spring, blooms together with its gardens.
