My favourite annual local flower show is no other than Royal Floria Putrajaya which also happens to be Malaysia's largest flower and garden festival. This year Floria 2016 will be held on Friday, 27th May to Sunday, 4th June 2016. The dates coincide with school holidays in Malaysia and Singapore.
What's new this year is that there will be a Preview Day with Official Opening Ceremony on Thursday, 26th May, i.e. one day before Floria 2016 officially opens to the public. The Preview is only for invited guests and holders of Friends of Floria (FOF) membership card.
