How do I get to Bloemencorso Bollenstreek Flower Parade?

Many people want to combine their visit to Keukenhof and the Flower parade in one day. However we recommend to choose another location (Sassenhein, Hillegom, Heemstede) for visiting the parade.

On the day of Parade it extremely busy in Keukenhof and roads around the park will be closed from 14:00 to 17:00. You will not be able to enter or leave Keukenhof parking during this time.

Viewing the Flower Parade at its final destination, in Haarlem, is a great option as well. It’s the most spectacular in the evening, when the platforms with flowers arrive to the city center. We recommend to book a hotel in Haarlem and enjoy the flower parade at its fullest.
