Make a day of Floriade with Canberra Centre

Floriade is the perfect excuse to spend a spring day in the city. Wander through a sea of colour at Commonwealth Park, enjoy the atmosphere, then make your way back into the CBD for food, shopping, entertainment and plenty more to discover.

This year at Canberra Centre, we're inviting you to Come for the Flowers and Stay for the Good Stuff.

Whether you're visiting with the family, catching up with friends or making a day of it for yourself, Canberra Centre is the perfect place to park, play, eat and explore before or after your Floriade adventure.

Getting to Floriade

If you're driving into the city, park at Canberra Centre, then make your way to Floriade by bus or on foot.

Catch the bus 
The Floriade shuttle bus stop is located at Ainslie Place, making it easy to leave your car at Canberra Centre and continue your journey to Commonwealth Park.

Follow the Floriade Walking trail
Prefer to explore on foot? Take the walking route from Canberra Centre through the heart of the CBD towards Commonwealth Park.
It's an easy way to enjoy more of Canberra along the way, with City Walk, the lake and the city streets all forming part of your Floriade adventure.

Once you've had your fill of flowers, simply make your way back into Canberra Centre, because that's where the rest of your day begins.
