If you've been following me for a while, you may remember my visits to the big Flowersculpture Parade in Zundert in 2016 and last year; a long train- and bustrip to the South of the Netherlands that takes about three hours. This year I decided to explore two smaller events nearby; these are only a 50 minute busride away from my town! I have one planned next week and yesterday after work in the morning, I traveled to Sint Jansklooster for their yearly 'Bloemencorso'!
Unlike in Zundert where the massive flowerstructures are all pushed by manpower with a whole group of people hidden underneath, other Corsos in the Netherlands use motorized carts, so the parade goes a little faster. Obviously it's still slow enough to enjoy the show, but compared to my experience last year, it felt like they were speeding by! There were also fewer designs, but honestly this parade was just as impressive and enjoyable. I had a great time!
I made a couple of videos, here's a playlist that features the designs that had moving bits:
If you want to see all twelve designs, below is a picspam of 82 photos (hey, I had to capture them from all sides and in detail;)
( Thousands of flowers! )
