Calling all flower lovers!

“Camellias at Locarno” is a festival for the general public and camellia lovers alike.

Over 300 variations of the flower will be on display, the location being apt because the Ticino climate is said to be ideal for growing Camellias.

The arrangements are created by professional gardeners, and as well as local music, there are ikebana and tea ceremonies to conjure up images of far-off lands. Far-off lands full of camellias that is.

And as it all takes place on the shores of Lake Maggiore, what better place could there be to look at beautiful flowers? 

Thurs 20 March - Mon 24 March
