Bhutan’s Department of Tourism has confirmed that the 8th edition of the Royal Bhutan Flower Exhibition is scheduled from May 02 – 06, 2023 in the capital Thimphu. The main venues of the exhibition will be the Clock Tower square in the heart of the city, and Norzin Lam, the main avenue of Thimphu. As always, green spaces and gardens will be developed across the city as part of the festival.

The Royal Bhutan Flower Exhibition aims to promote an appreciation of beautiful urban spaces, support floriculture and gardening related entrepreneurship, and establish a vibrant community event.

Now an annual event, the Royal Bhutan Flower Exhibition is hosted by different districts in partnership with the local community. Over the years, the event has extended beyond the main venue, to transform entire towns. Permanent gardens, murals and art installations created during the festival have become landmarks in host towns.
