Bloemencorso Zundert
The first weekend of September is traditionally the weekend of the Flowerparade / Corso Zundert. 20 communities around the town of Zundert build a large parade wagon and they pin lots (and I mean LOTS!) of flowers on it.
The corso Zundert is the largest flower parade of the world. Have a look at the photos made last year.
