The Tesselaar KaBloom Festival of Flowers has just kicked off and will run until Monday, April 25. Held in Silvan, Victoria, you can expect the Dandenong Ranges not just to come alive with waves of colourful flowers, but also daily circus performances for the duration of the festival.

Local circus acts will soar up to five metres above the flower-dotted stage, performing two or three times each day.

There will also be food and market stalls, with plenty of family-friendly activities, including circus and drumming workshops, garden games, face painting and Easter egg hunts, over the long weekend.
