Construction days Flower parade Holland 2024

9 April 2025 09:00 11 April 2025 13:00

The world-famous Bloemencorso Bollenstreek will ride again on Saturday 20 April 2024. Are you curious about how the floats are made? Then take a look behind the scenes on Wednesday 17 April to Friday 19 April during the Flower Parade build-up days. During these days, hundreds of volunteers will decorate the floats with flowers.

Construction days Flower parade

The build-up days are meant for young & old. Have you always wanted to see how a corsow truck is made? Then the assembly days are a must. The corsow trailers are supplied in large halls in three days by hundreds of volunteers with fragrant and colourful spring flowers such as hyacinths, daffodils and tulips and many other bulbous flowers. The flowers are attached to the design of the trolley in a special way; we call this ‘stitches‘. If you are lucky, maybe you can try it yourself. How nice it is then when you see ‘your’ own work pass by during the corsow weekend.

Opening hours to the public

The build-up days are in 2024 on Wednesday 17, Thursday 18 or Friday 19 April 2024 at DeLeeuw Flowerbulbs in Sassenheim. This flower bulb company has been hosting the assembly days for many years. You just can’t just walk in.

Hotel during the Flower Parade

The build-up days of the Flower Parade are held during the Parade Week. During this week there are many events in and around the Bulb Region. It is therefore an ideal period to plan a weekend or week’s holiday. There is a wide choice of hotels and b&b’s available from which the events in the Corsoweek are easy to follow. Popular are the hotels along the beach and near the flower fields. With children it is also great to stay in one of the holiday parks.
