Battle of Flowers made free for islanders again in 2026

Islanders can catch the Battle of Flowers for free again this summer, as it returns to Victoria Avenue.

The Afternoon and Moonlight Parades will be held on 14 and 15 August (respectively), with everyone invited to watch teams from across the islands showcase their work.

It marks the second year the Battle of Flowers has been made free to watch after a change in management in 2025.

Battlers will parade up and down the avenue, revealing their designs for 2026, as well as performing on the floats adorned with colourful flowers and petals.

Last year, St Clement won the public vote with their 'Inkosi' float. However, there was no official judging or awards.

Some teams have already announced their themes for 2026, with the Optamists choosing 'We'll Be Coming', inspired by the Scottish National Football Team heading to the World Cup.

VC Family and Friends are also doing a sports-themed float with 'Lights Out and Away We Go', in a nod to Formula One.
