Spalding Flower Festival - Lincolnshire


The Spalding Flower Parade took place on Saturday 4th May 2013 at 2:00 p.m. with the theme 'Let's Celebrate'.
2013 was the last ever parade as Lincolnshire County Council and South Holland District Council
said that they can no longer afford to fund it.

This article (click for the link) suggests that a week long Festival may replace the traditional Flower parade for 2014

Millions of surplus tulip heads from acres of fields are crafted into decorated floats and paraded through the town and surrounding villages and many churches also hold flower festivals during the festival weekend. Visit this link for the official Spalding Flower Parade website.
