You are cordially invited to participate in Philadelphia in Full Bloom an extraordinary four-day cultural program for garden enthusiasts and art lovers. The centerpiece of your program is the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society’s renowned Philadelphia Flower Show, the most beautiful and largest annual indoor flower show in the world.

As a participant in this special program, you will enjoy an exclusive guided tour of the Flower Show before the doors are opened to the public. The show’s theme, “Jazz it Up” pays homage to New Orleans, the city where jazz was born.

Throughout your visit, you will be personally welcomed by the director or a member of the senior staff of the cultural institutions you visit. Such welcomes, along with visits to private homes and clubs, are the hallmark of all Philadelphia Hospitality programs.
