Apart from the major event held at Commonwealth Park, Floriade's impact is felt throughout the city thanks to Floriade About Town, an initiative that invites guests to discover neighborhood businesses that are hosting themed events and promotions. Additionally, local organizations and clubs can take part in the Floriade Community initiative by making their own floral displays, which helps to spread the Floriade atmosphere to different neighborhoods.​


Unique After-Dark Experience

The NightFest, which takes place from October 3–6, is one of the most looked forward to features of Floriade 2024. NightFest provides a special after-dark experience with breathtaking light shows lighting up the grounds. Wandering through the park, guests may take in an evening filled with captivating horticulture illuminations, live music, and artistic performances. For those who are in Canberra during Floriade, NightFest is a must-see event since it brings a wonderful touch to the festival.


Free Entry and Access

The fact that admission to Floriade is free is among its most alluring features. Because of this, it's a free event that both residents and visitors can attend, giving them a chance to take in one of the capital's most picturesque seasons. However, since NightFest is a ticketed event, people who wish to attend will need to buy tickets in advance.


Sustainability and Innovation

Floriade is committed to sustainability, and it will always place a high priority on environmental stewardship. Through lectures and exhibits, the festival encourages eco-friendly activities and encourages attendees to take up more sustainable gardening techniques. In addition, it serves as a forum for the dissemination of cutting-edge gardening methods that may be used in the house, which enhances the event's overall environmental impact.​
