Flower decked procession

The big day is fast approaching in Sélestat! You all look forward to the Corso Fleuri every year! It's an intense day, full of emotion, laughter, spectacle and fun...
With its twelve floral floats, the theme of this flagship event for Sélestat in 2023 will be "Youth"!
A host of festive events await you in the town centre, including music, folklore and street entertainment, not forgetting the children's square.
On Saturday at 6pm, the first parade begins along 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 eat in one of Sélestat's many restaurants and dance the night away at the Dahlia ball in Square Ehm, from 7pm, with lunch and dinner available on site.
At 10pm, the night procession departs from the Tanzmatten! It's a chance to discover the illuminated floats in a completely different atmosphere.
At midnight, head to the canoeing lake a few steps away to watch the fireworks.
Paying seats in the uncovered grandstand are available from Sélestat Haut-Koenigsbourg Tourisme.
A rich programme that promises to be an exceptional weekend!
So make way for the festivities!
On Sunday 13 August, the festivities will continue in a more modest vein, with an exhibition of 12 floats, the Wine Fair and folk entertainment in the Place de la Victoire.
