The Sapporo Flower Carpet is an annual event that began in 2014 to celebrate the opening of Sapporo Kita 3-jo Plaza. Local volunteers collaborate to create breathtaking displays using flower petals and other natural materials, with the theme for the nature-inspired artwork changing every year. For 2023, the main display will depict Hokkaido’s bird and animal life, following the theme of “Towards the future.” Whether you’re a flower enthusiast or simply appreciate the dedication and teamwork that goes into creating volunteer-led artistic displays, the Sapporo Flower Carpet is definitely worth a visit.
