FYJA 2026 Will Turn Polanco Into a Multi-Site Garden Circuit

Organizers cast the tenth edition as a collective push to activate public space to expand access to nature.

Overview

  • The Festival of Flowers and Gardens confirmed its tenth edition in Mexico City’s Polanco with the theme “Mexico” or “El Jardín Mexicano.”
  • Most coverage lists the dates as April 30 to May 3, though one report cites a shorter run from April 30 to May 1.
  • Events will span Parque Lincoln, Parque América, Avenida Presidente Masaryk, Polanquito, the Torre del Reloj gallery, and the Ángela Peralta Theater.
  • The public program features large floral installations, ephemeral gardens, talks, and workshops, with speakers such as Céline Baumann, Javier Senosiain, and Loreta Castro.
  • Organizers describe a broad, privately backed coalition of producers, nurseries, artisans, designers, academics, businesses, sponsors, authorities, and neighbors, and the Miguel Hidalgo mayor says no public funds will be used.
