THE
BATTLE OF FLOWERS
Every summer, Jersey celebrates the Battle of Flowers. Only 90,000 people live on the
island. But the spectacular parades attract 30,000 visitors each August.
The first Parade of Flowers
was in 1902, to celebrate
the coronation of King Edward VII (Queen Victoria’s son). The parade was
very popular and soon it was a regular festival. It was traditional for the men to throw flowers to
beautiful women in the crowd. At the end of the parade, the crowd had a
“battle” with all the flowers. Now there are about 100 floats (= carri) and
bands every year. People from the island work for months to create incredible
designs. They use more than
150,000 real flowers and paper flowers and work all through the night
before Battle Day. Competition for the prizes is intense, but now they don’t have a “battle” with
the flowers at the end of the parade on Battle Day! The next evening,
they put lights on the floats and they have a Moonlight Parade along the
seafront. Finally, the
festival ends with spectacular fireworks on the beach.
