About the Battle of Flowers in Jersey

The Jersey Battle of Flowers is arguably one of Europe's most spectacular floral festivals.

The origins of the Battle lie in 1902, during the coronation of Kind Edward Vll and Queen Alexandra when Islanders decided to hold a parade in their honour, with horse-drawn floats covered in flowers taking to the streets of Jersey. Flowers were picked from the floats and thrown to the audience. This developed into flowers being thrown back, and the 'Battle of the Flowers' was born.

After a break during the Second World War and German occupation, the event was revived in the 1950s. Today the Battle of Flowers is a community event that involves the whole island and attracts many visitors year after year.

The parade takes place every year during August, with floats, performers and dancers taking to Victoria Avenue overlooking the beautiful St. Aubin's Bay.

The main parade takes place on Friday 9th August from 2pm (Parade starts at 4pm), with the stunning night parade lighting up the south coast on Saturday 11th August from 6.30pm (Parade starts at 8.30pm).

Experience the excitement and spectacular colour of one of Europe's leading floral festivals!
