Wildflowers Spring to life in Western Australia

Kings Park Festivals

Western Australia's wildflower season is well and truly underway with carpets blooming in the State's mid-north west regions. So get your car rental organised and camera batteries charged.

For the first time, wildflower enthusiasts can track where to locate the latest wildflowers State-wide, following the launch of an interactive Wildflower Tracker, which also gives users the opportunity to contribute photos and flower recordings from their travels. Start by seeing thousands of extraordinary wildflowers from all across WA blooming in one spot at the spectacular Kings Park and Botanic Garden, right on the steps of the Perth CBD. Celebrating the greatest wildflower show on earth, the month-long festival hosts a number of free events, including outdoor exhibitions, guided walks, art displays and family activities.
