Malcesine in Bloom

Malcesine in Fiore is one of the most enchanting spring events on Lake Garda, transforming the village into a riot of colours, scents and natural beauty. From 22 to 24 May 2026, the historic centre of Malcesine, the Padre Mario Casella Gardens and the Palazzo dei Capitani become the beating heart of an event dedicated to the world of flowers and greenery.

Over the three days, flower growers from all over Italy will showcase an extraordinary variety of plants: from geraniums to tulips, from camellias to primroses, right through to indoor, garden and fruit plants. There will be no shortage of botanical rarities and curiosities, such as Sicilian citrus fruits, Tuscan azaleas and rhododendrons, oriental bonsai, orchids and the finest roses.

One of the most popular aspects of the event is the chance to buy directly from growers, whilst receiving valuable advice on plant care and cultivation. It’s an ideal opportunity for gardening enthusiasts, but also for anyone wishing to explore the world of gardening in an informed way.

Malcesine in Fiore is also a space dedicated to the latest trends in green living, such as growing herbs at home: basil, rosemary, thyme, sage and many varieties of mint take centre stage, bringing nature and flavour straight into the home.

To complete the experience, artisans’ stalls offer unique floral-themed items: handmade pots, garden decorations, wrought-iron creations and nature-inspired jewellery.

Set against a backdrop already brimming with charm, between lake and mountains, Malcesine in Fiore further enhances the beauty of the village, offering visitors an immersive experience of nature, tradition and creativity.
