For a long time, the Flower Festival, which takes place in the spring when the flowers are at their most beautiful, has been one of Madeira’s most popular tourist and local attractions. This enchanting celebration, which includes a procession and floats through the streets of Funchal, displays and fragrances the air with a variety of floral species native to the island, creating a magical atmosphere throughout the city. Each year’s edition has a different group of adults and children wearing colorful costumes (decorated with flowers native to the archipelago) and performing dances to a newly devised choreography.
