Fleurs de Villes Pride Opens June 22
World-renowned floral show Fleurs de Villes returns to Pacific Place for the U.S. premiere of Fleurs de Villes PRIDE – a fresh floral celebration of joy and inclusivity, created by some of Seattle’s top floral artists.
From June 22 - 26, Pacific Place will bloom with a stunning variety of colorful, joyful, and uplifting fresh floral mannequins, benches, rainbows, swings, and selfie-frames inspired by Seattle PrideFest's 2023 theme "Rainbow Rising" - celebrating the diversity and beauty of the Pride community.
Fleurs de Villes PRIDE will feature the works of local florists including: A Natural Design, Apotheca Design, Bentley Fleurs Design Studio, Bloom Brats Botanical, Busara Flora, Coree Ryan, Energia Events, Florals by Cassandra, Full Bloom, New Leaf Floral Design, Oak and Fig Floral, RMC Floral Designs and Seablush Floral.
“We could not be more happy to be able to bring joy through flowers to this important celebration of Pride,” says Karen Marshall, Co-founder of Fleurs de Villes. “Fleurs de Villes has long supported the LGTBQIA+ community globally – not only with our florists, but also through the stories and people we champion through flowers. We look forward to
bringing people together with uplifting floral storytelling throughout this festive week of Pride celebrations.”
The self-guided Fleurs de Villes PRIDE exhibit will celebrate the theme of “Rainbow Rising” for the upcoming 49th annual Pride Parade on June 25th. The floral art exhibit is free of charge and open to the public.
