The big day is fast approaching in Sélestat! You all look forward to it every year - the Corso Fleuri! It's an intense day, full of emotion, laughter, spectacle and fun...

With its twelve floral floats, the theme of Sélestat's flagship event in 2023 will be "colourful youth"!

A whole host of festive events await you in the town centre, including music, folklore and street entertainment, not to mention the children's square, craft market and wine fair.

Saturday at 6pm, departure of the first parade from the Quai de l'Ill! Marvel at the dazzlingly colourful floats and the processions of musicians, dancers and jugglers through the streets of the old town...
  
You can enjoy a meal in one of Sélestat's many restaurants and dance the night away at the bal du Dahlia square Ehm, from 7pm, with lunch and dinner available on site.

At 10pm, make way for the nightly procession departing from the Tanzmatten! At midnight, head to the canoeing lake a few steps away to watch the fireworks, subject to authorisation from the prefecture.

Paying seats in the uncovered grandstand are available from Sélestat Haut-Koenigsbourg Tourisme.
