Millions of blooms. Sway Circus high above the flowers. Wildflower walks. Fun for all ages
Fields of Fabulous Flowers
This is what KaBloom is really all about; the breathtaking splendour of millions of flowers across five acres of plantings set in the gorgeous Dandenong Ranges. This floral sensation will melt your heart and fill your soul.
Bespoke Flower Circus
Roll up, roll up to see the world’s first KaBloom Circus spectacular! Visitors will be treated to a show like no other as flower fairies, sprites and pixies emerge from the magical woods to delight and entertain. The troupe of sensational circus artists from Melbourne’s own ‘SWAY’ will perform on sway poles, five metres up in the air! Be enthralled by the sometimes mischievous and outlandish performers who will take you on a journey through the weird and wonderful world of BLOOM. The cheeky performers bend and sway to impossible angles, animating the skies above whilst taking you on a journey of discovery of the weird and wonderful world of nature.
Tractor Train
Our tractor trains depart from the Flower Station regularly, taking in the gorgeous scenery as they tour the farm. Passengers will enjoy audio full of information about how the farm began and how we grow and care for all the flowers. This is a wheelchair friendly ride and people with limited mobility and their carers ride free, we can even drop you at the bottom of the fields with an hourly pick up.
Wild Flower Meadows
Wonderful wild flower meadows to immerse yourself in. We are so looking forward to sharing these colourful fields with you. We have paths for you to walk through and be right in amongst the blooms. It is floral enchantment at its best.
Storytelling in the Fairy Garden
We have a magical glade in our farm that is home to a village of fairies and their cohorts. Fairies love flowers, so of course they flock here to be among them. Our fairy garden plays host to a very special story teller. Teague has long told the tales of the Silvan Glade and all the fae who dwell within it. Carrying the knowledge of the ages she loves to share her stories with the children who can carry on the folklore. Teague tells stories daily in the magical Fairy Garden.
Food and Drink
Enjoying so many flowers can be hungry and thirsty work, so it is important to keep fuelled. We have food from around the world, catering for a range of dietary requirements and preferences.
Shopaholics
We have a Nursery Shop filled with spring flowering bulbs as well as indoor and outdoor plants to indulge in. Our Fairy Shop is filled with magical wares. Our Lolly Shop is there to tempt you with a myriad of sweet treats.

Last, but most definitely not least is our Flower Market, after all, who comes to a flower festival without taking some home?! We have gorgeous bunches of seasonal, locally grown blooms to choose from.
