Laurel Bank Park is one of Toowoomba’s prettiest parks, with character-garden theming that’s truly unique! With lush lawns and gardens overflowing with cottage garden favourites such as daisies, foxglove and delphiniums, Laurel Bank is perfect for leisurely strolls. This park also features a selection of oak trees, a glorious wisteria arbour, scented garden, and a flowering ornamental peach avenue (hello selfies!).
Our feature floral displays are nothing short of spectacular, with over 70,000 flowers and 12,000 tulips blooming during Carnival. Don’t miss the themed garden beds that change every year – be sure to check them out from the elevated viewing platform to marvel at living art created by only the flowers themselves. That’s what we call flower arranging on a grand scale! In the past our gardener extraordinaires have brought designs to life depicting all sorts of animals, fossils, families and even Olympic themes, wowing everyone who visits the park. It’s a highlight of visitors to Laurel Bank Park every year.
During Toowoomba Carnival of Flowers you’ll find bunches of things to see and do in Laurel Bank Park, including Carnival Info Hubs, garden info stands, live music and food trucks. Check out the event listings for each of these to plan your trip.
Plus, you’ll find a vintage carousel in the park this year just for Carnival. Don’t miss it!
Laurel Bank Park is open EVERY DAY and you can visit at ANY TIME. And petals, it’s FREE – we’re not charging a single seed!
