Europe's biggest floral parade
The Zundert Flower Parade (Corso Zundert) is a moving art gallery, with giant sculptures colored by Dahlia blooms bringing creative concepts to life.

The 2017 parade takes place Sunday, September 3. This clip by ROStvZundert shows the 2012 parade in its entirety. Also see: 2016 Corso Zundert Photo Gallery
