Flower Power hits the Channel Islands - don’t miss it NEXT YEAR!

This month sees Jersey in full bloom, with the Battle of Flowers Carnival on August 11 and 12.

Visitors can enjoy the spectacle of flower festooned floats, musicians, dancers and entertainers.

Jersey in full bloom

The Moonlight Parade on August 11 involves flower-covered floats covered with thousands of lights, giving a truly magical appearance to this floral extravaganza.
“The festival is a great spectacle and a chance to see the island in full glory. We are already taking bookings for 2012 Jersey floral festivities as the hotels book up really quickly – this year was sold out weeks ago, ” says Beverley Scarr, short haul manager at Channel Islands Direct.
Alternatively, those wishing to enjoy the crisp autumn breeze and natures changing seasonal colours, should book a break to Guernsey between September 24 and October 2 during Autumn Floral Festival Week - a must for all garden lovers. Join experts for walks, talks, lectures and workshops.
