Floral and nursery market on the spring lakefront
Saturday, May 9th, and Sunday, May 10th, 2026, Desenzano del Garda, in the province of Brescia, hosts Fiori in Festa, the market exhibition dedicated to floriculture that annually announces the arrival of the warmer season on Lake Garda. The heart of the event is the Lungolago Cesare Battisti, which transforms into a large open-air garden.
Along the lakeside promenade, from 9:30 AM to 8:00 PM, specialized exhibitors will offer plants, flowers, arrangements, and gardening supplies. It's the ideal opportunity for nature lovers to discover new varieties, receive advice from nursery growers, and refresh their balconies or gardens with the arrival of spring.
In addition to the commercial aspect, Fiori in Festa offers a scenic spectacle: between Piazza Cappelletti and the Belvedere, an exhibition of topiary sculptures will be set up, true works of art created by shaping plants and hedges. A creative touch that makes the event interesting even for those who are not gardening experts.
The event, organized by the Municipality of Desenzano del Garda, is designed to engage enthusiasts, families, and passing visitors. The lakefront setting, with views of the lake and the historic center, makes Fiori in Festa a pleasant stop for a spring excursion on the southern Garda.
