FESTIVALS & EVENTS
Brunch Among the Blooms
Brunch Among the Blooms is an exclusive seasonal experience at Bloom Into You Flower Farm in Flowerdale, Victoria. Just over one hour from Melbourne, this immersive gathering invites guests to slow down, reconnect, and celebrate the beauty of nature surrounded by vibrant seasonal blooms.
This curated event blends creativity, dining, and connection. Guests begin with a hands-on floral session led by guest designers, crafting a wild garden bouquet, a delicate flower crown, or a rustic table arrangement to take home. No experience is needed — just a love of blooms and a desire to create.
A thoughtfully curated menu is then served at a beautifully styled long table set among the flowers. Fresh flavours, seasonal produce, and elegant presentation create a feast for the senses. A glass of the season — sparkling, botanical, or still — adds the perfect finishing touch.
Guests can also wander the flower fields with snips in hand, gathering fresh blooms to incorporate into their creations and to take home as a memory of the day.
As part of A Summer in Bloom, visitors may also enjoy Gather and Bloom: Twilight Pick or extend their stay at Villa Minto luxury accommodation overlooking the farm.
Early bookings are recommended.
Alexandra Pro Rodeo
The 10th annual Alexandra Pro Rodeo has been postponed from January due to bushfires. However, they have pushed it back to March and turned it into a fantastic bushfire recovery event. More bands, more stages, more fun around the arena and just as much rodeo action.
This event continues to be regarded as one of the favourite rodeos on the APRA circuit by cowboys, cowgirls and attendees alike. Beyond a full afternoon of action on the arena, visitors can enjoy food stalls, kids amusements, markets and merchandise, bars, and entertainment on the main stage until midnight.
Make a weekend of it, and enjoy the rest that the local region has to offer on the best weekend in March. Proceeds from this event will go directly back to supporting impacted communities following the January 2026 bushfires.
