Galleria Floral Experience with Flowers by Bachman’s

The Galleria and Bachman’s have teamed up to bring you an artistic floral event with an Escape to Paradise theme for the 2025 Galleria Floral Experience!

Over the years, the Galleria flower show has become a spring tradition for our family. It’s one of my mom’s favorite events of the whole year, so my sister and I try to go with her every year. The Galleria and Bachman’s have long teamed up to present some amazing and artistic floral events, each year with a different theme.

This year’s theme, Escape to Paradise, lets you experience the tropics with vibrant florals and exotic fashion (–cue the animal prints) with bold installations of gardens and vignettes all throughout the mall.

Located throughout the Galleria in Edina, the floral experience is free with no admission charge. The Galleria is even offering free valet parking throughout the event. (Located at the east entrance near CōV Restaurant.)

Get your eyes and nose ready for this floral event running from March 23rd to April 6th. 

At times it can get busy, so if you don’t like crowds or want to have the opportunity to snap the best photos without a wait, try to pick an off time, a weekday, an early morning or later in the evening.

Walking through the amazing display, I was enthralled by the sights and smells, reminding me that spring is closer than we think. Just for a bit you can wander and pretend we’re no longer in winter.
