Get ready to smell the roses and other flowers at the annual Macy’s Flower Show, in the flagship Herald Square store.
The flowers are FREE, as are seminars on flower arranging, gardening, spring entertaining, and more, including events for kids, celebrity appearances, and the chance to win tickets to shows. Some events require an RSVP, to ensure space.
This year’s theme is Once Upon a Springtime transforming the store into enchanted gardens of beauty and renewal and the whimsy of a fairytale journey, with princesses, evil queens, fairy godmothers, and noble knights that lead to a wondrous journey.
The 2018 Macy’s Flower Show is sprouting Sunday, March 25 through Sunday, April 8, with lavish gardens that showcase millions of live flowers, plants and trees from around the globe, taking root on store countertops, windows, and specially-designed architecture, including grand bridges, columns and topiaries.
