Cervia Garden City
Founded in 1972 under the name ‘Maggio in Fiore’ (May in Bloom) from an idea of Germano Todoli and continued by his son Riccardo, the event took on its current name in the 1990s, to enhance the environmental characteristics of the area, which in the early 20th century stimulated the painter and town planner Giuseppe Palanti to create the garden city here. Today, as in the past, the world-famous event aims to safeguard greenery and nature in the name of friendship between peoples. Every year, Master Gardeners from over 60 Italian and foreign cities, organisations, companies, and associations are invited to Cervia to set up more than 60 green areas in May, creating Europe’s ‘largest open-air floral art exhibition’.
