Battle of Flowers returns to Guernsey's North Show


The 100th anniversary of Guernsey's North Show came to a spectacular close with the Battle of Flowers event.

Dozens of participants showed off weeks and months of hard work in a floral extravaganza befitting the special anniversary. 

There were a wide variety of entries, some of which had been more than a year in the making.

The 2020 event sadly had to be cancelled due to coronavirus restrictions on the island.

And uncertainty over this year's show meant that there were less entries than usual.

However, there was no shortage of creativity, colour and enthusiasm as the floats entered the area for the parade.

Thousands of spectators turned up to watch the event, one of the highlights of Guernsey's summer calendar.
