floriade the netherland 2012

[bcnvcanada]

Please to assit, We would like to go to Floriade flower and garden show, held every ten years. It is coming up next year, so we are starting our planing. I think that it is a place near the German border (Southern). Our question, is will there be trains, buses or other public transportation from Amsterdam or Rotterdam. We do not want to rent a car, as we did 10 years ago, when it was outside of Haarlem. Hopefully, someone will know. Thanks

Looks like it is held in Venlo

There is a train to there

You can check the train schedule

Venlo is much farther away then the former Floriade in Hoofddorp.

Indeed regular trains to Venlo and possible connecting buses will be the way to go there.

Venlo is about 2 hours from Amsterdam. You could also consider staying there for the night. The floriade is quite big..

 

It's held from April to October 2012 by the way.

Yes I saw that an overnight would certainly be better use of time there

 

Thanks
