Bloemencorso Zundert 2013


Bloemencorso Zundert takes place on the first Sunday of September.  It is the biggest event of the year in Zundert, the Netherlands, as well as being the largest flower parade in the world.  Large floats are designed and built and covered in dahlias; thousands of dahlias for each float and there are usually about 20 floats each year.  Each hamlet's float involves hundreds of builders.  The oldest members of each hamlet are responsible for growing the dahlias.
