Valletta Green Festival 2024

The Valletta Green Festival is a yearly opportunity to enrich the capital city of Valletta with a green element of a huge flower carpet spread on the floor of St. George’s Square in front of the President’s palace.
80,000 seasonal flower plants crammed tightly together are planted time before to be in blossom for the infiorata to create an intricate design of white, yellow, purple, red and pink colours for visitors to see, walk around and take photographs.
It is held every spring aiming to inspire residents to grow their flowers in their own houses around the villages and towns of the island.
