Tesselaar KaBloom Festival of Flowers
Give your autumn a blooming boost with this floral event, featuring flower displays, acrobats, food trucks and, for the first time, a soaring ferris wheel.
Overview
Get in the spirit of things this autumn with a feast for the eyes at the Tesselaar KaBloom Festival of Flowers. Held in Silvan – just beyond Melbourne's fringe in the Dandenong Ranges – five acres of colourful sunflowers, salvias, marigolds, dahlias and much more have been arranged in captivating patterns for your wandering pleasure.
Running from Saturday, March 29 to Sunday, April 27, the festival has a new element for the first time in 2025, with the KaBloom Ferris Wheel offering the ideal vantage point to admire the vibrant designs below. Whether you're keen for a laidback stroll with nan or somewhere that inspires the kids to get in touch with nature, this verdant event is just what you need.
Besides the blooms, there's also a stacked entertainment lineup for all ages. Daring performers from Circus Oz Now for Wow bring acrobatics, juggling and hoop diving to the party, while the whimsical Becky Bubble Show delights onlookers with dreamy rainbow-coloured bubbles. Meanwhile, fairy storytellers weave enchanting tales for little ones in the magical Fairy Garden.
You can also score handcrafted goods at the Market Faire, dine on tantalising flavours from local food trucks, or take part in garden games, obstacle courses, scenic tractor rides and even drumming workshops. Plus, with easter on the horizon, KaBloom will get in the mood with a fun-loving hunt where finding mischievous rabbits equals more sweet treats.
