Great display of flowers and plants trees and gardens. Easy walking and not too many people or over crowded. Plant of room for wheel chairs and walkers. Cofffee shops and cafes just in town. This would appeal to all ages and families.

If you love flowers, this is a must-go-to the carnival! The flowers are such a beauty! The only downside when you go during peak season is that there’ll be a lot of people there hence a bit harder to take your desired photos if you’re not patient enough 😅. Also, I think starting from mid-September is maybe the best time to go as all the flowers will be in full bloom by then.

The town’s gardens were small but stunning and the pride from the volunteer information booth was inspiring. To talk to the actual gardener’s was enlightening at their booth. A personnel touch well delivered. The local house gardener ‘Grand Champion’ was also a highlight (see pictures) and I’ve never seen black petunias. Blew my mind. Congrats Toowoomba.

September is the month to visit Toowoomba for the carnival of flowers. It's a truly international event with more than flowers on display. It's a celebration over a month with something for every generation. From the food and wine festival, the carnival parade, to the magnificent gardens both private and public on display to the broad variety entertainment and above all the country hospitality of the Toowoomba people.

Amazing flowers to see lots of different types well maintained. Well worth the 2 hour drive up. Queens Park has bbq areas and playground as well as big green areas to play in. Highly recommend going to have a look at the Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers. 😊😊

Went to Toowoomba Carnival of flowers. Was so beautiful and highly recommended for anyone, especially tourists from interstate. Had many activities for families and young children. I came on the day of Parade so got to see many different decorations, cars and nationalities.
Recommend to arrive early next year for parking at the park. Only $5 for whole day parking. They have good info hubs that can advise you where to go. You should check it out next year!
