Flowertime général

The theme of this 6th edition is still under discussion, so we'll keep you posted in the coming weeks.

Flowertime is back in 2025 with the promise of surprising you once again with a theme that will allow artists to give free rein to their imagination to transform and enchant the different rooms of the Hôtel de Ville. 

We are proposing a route that will take visitors through the architectural wealth of 15 rooms in the City Hall, while discovering the colourful creations of our Belgian and international florists.

A garden of dreams in the City Hall

Every other summer, in alternation with the Flower Carpet of the Grand-Place, the City Hall of Brussels receives Flowertime.

The enchanting building is transformed into an idyllic place for a stroll.  The entry hall, the corridors, the offices, meeting and reception rooms are adorned with dozens of floral arrangements. Each of them unique and surprising! These magnificently coloured and scented pictures are created by internationally renowned landscape architects and floral artists.

The City Hall of 
Brussels...

A blend of Gothic and classical styles, it is located on the south side of the Grand Place. The Town Hall constitutes the sole medieval vestige of the Grand-Place and is regarded as a masterpiece of Gothic civil architecture, and more particularly of the Brabant Gothic. Its tower is 96 metres high.

... on the worlds’ most beautiful square!

The Grand Place is the historical heart of Brussels. Here Gothic style can be seen adjacent to opulent baroque, neo-classical as well as neo-Gothic. The Grand Place is regarded by its admirers as “the most beautiful central square in the world”! Its construction began in the 15th century, with halis, guild houses and a Town Hall. It was virtually razed after three full days of bombardment by the French Army in 1695, yet was rebuilt in less than five years, notably bt the different guilds.

Since 2000 the entire Grand Place has been listed as a Unesco world heritage site. The floral tour of each Flowertime starts on the Grand Place and takes you along the most beautiful rooms of the City Hall.

About us

Created in 1986, the Tapis de fleurs de Bruxelles non-profit association organises the Flowercarpet events on the Grand-Place in Brussels and the Flowertime exhibitions inside the City Hall. 

The association's aim is to promote floral art in Brussels and throughout Belgium through collaboration with various associations. We support artists from all over Belgium, whether for the design of the flower carpets or for the floral arrangements that we exhibit at during the Flowertime events.

When it comes to choosing flowers (mainly begonias and dahlias for the flower carpets), we also give preference to Belgian growers, for their expertise and international reputation.

The Brussels Flowercarpet has been listed as part of the Brussels Region's intangible heritage since 01/10/2020.

The Tapis de Fleurs de Bruxelles asbl is also a member of the International Association of Ephemeral Arts, which brings together organisers of ephemeral art events from all over the world.
