Chongming Flower Expo 2021
The 10th China Flower Expo with the theme “Blossoming Chinese dream” will be held on Chongming Island, Shanghai, China from the 21st of May until the 2nd of July 2021. The China Flower EXPO is the largest and most influential national flower event in China. The organisation expects to receive three million visitors during the Expo.
This is the first time the island is hosting the event since its establishment in 1987. By hosting the event, the island hopes to develop a flower industry and flower-themed tourism as part of its transformation into a world-class ecological zone, according to the Shanghai government's 13th Five-Year Plan (2016-20).
The exhibition, which will cover 588 hectares, will include the main expo park, service facilities to its north and Dongping town to the south.
The expo park will be divided into several sections, including a core display center, a main avenue, six pavilions and six gardens for flowers such as magnolias, plums, orchids, chrysanthemums, bamboo and lotuses.
