  • Alexandra Blossom Festival, 2024

Celebrate the arrival of spring in Alexandra, Central Otago.

Plans for the 2024 Contact Alexandra Blossom Festival are underway as we look to build on the tremendous success of our past events, where over 15,000 people enjoy the celebrations each year.

This historic Festival has marked the arrival of spring for 67 years. The first festival was born out of community spirit and recognition of the special character of Alexandra. 

These values remain at the heart of every subsequent festival. It has a unique feel of a country fair in a modern age.
