Féerie Florale at Alden Biesen
Be-Florist, the leading florist association, proudly presents the latest edition of Féerie Florale, a magical event that will take place from September 26–29, 2025 at the Landcommanderij Alden Biesen. This year’s theme, “Lights and Shadows”, promises visitors an unforgettable experience filled with contrasts, creativity, and artistic floral creations.
