Description

Discover the central and most iconic event of the Flower Festival: the Silleteros Parade, the way it should be experienced. Up close in a reserved box, with music, dancing, a poncho, a hat, and local people.
The Silleteros Parade is the main event of the Flower Fair and the one that closes the festivities. It was also the starting point for this celebration that brings together a full week of Paisa tradition and culture.

You'll be in a reserved box, where we'll give you a hat and a poncho, as well as drinks and a local liquor tasting. But the best part will be experiencing this event, which has been part of the Paisa tradition for more than 100 years, from the front row.

Here you will see the farmers display their saddles, listen to music, dance and celebrate as you should: as locals and not as conventional tourists.
