The Ministry of Agriculture and Land Reclamation announced the start of receiving reservation requests from companies and institutions wishing to participate in the events of the “Spring Flower Exhibition” in its new edition for 2026, the 93rd edition, scheduled to be held at the Egyptian Agricultural Museum in Dokki, under the patronage of the Minister of Agriculture and Land Reclamation, at the end of next March.

The exhibition is considered the largest and oldest annual event in the Arab region in this field, bringing together major producers, exhibitors, and experts in the ornamental plants and landscape sector.

The Ministry clarified, in a statement, that the exhibition’s organizing committee will begin receiving participation requests starting Thursday, February 5th, from companies and institutions working in the fields of ornamental flowers, shade plants, cut flowers, cactus producers, garden and landscape design companies, as well as institutions for agricultural and garden production supplies, and modern irrigation.

The Minister of Agriculture and Land Reclamation confirmed that this year’s edition of the exhibition will feature distinguished organization at the Agricultural Museum in Dokki, ensuring the provision of suitable and fully equipped display spaces, along with all logistical facilities for participants to ensure the exhibition appears in a manner befitting Egypt’s status and history in this sector. This is especially true after the development that the museum grounds witnessed last year, which continued throughout the past period, making the Agricultural Museum more prepared to receive tens of thousands of visitors.

It was added that the exhibition aims to support the ornamental plants sector, open new export horizons for Egyptian products, in addition to being a cultural and aesthetic outlet for the public. It provides an opportunity for those interested in this field to learn about everything new, as well as benefit from the competitive prices and special offers presented by exhibiting companies.

It was pointed out that for the first time in several years, and after schedule conflicts with various occasions and the blessed month of Ramadan in previous years, the Spring Flower Exhibition in its current edition returns to coincide its opening with the Spring holiday celebrations, reviving this authentic Egyptian tradition in its natural timing, which has been associated with the hearts of Egyptians for decades.

It was emphasized that the Spring Flower Exhibition has become a comprehensive economic platform that contributes to enhancing the nursery, flower, and ornamental plants sector, which represents a promising opportunity for youth and investors. It serves as a meeting point connecting local producers with foreign markets, while maintaining its status as a time-honored Egyptian tradition awaited by citizens to enjoy nature and learn about the unique diversity that Egypt possesses in this field.

Regarding the application mechanism, the Ministry clarified that companies and institutions wishing to make a reservation should go to the exhibition management headquarters at the Agricultural Museum in Dokki to complete participation forms and review the technical and organizational conditions.

Spring Flower Exhibition

The Spring Flower Exhibition is an annual horticultural event held in many cities, typically in parks or botanical gardens, to celebrate the arrival of spring. While the specific history varies by location, these exhibitions generally originated in the 19th or 20th centuries as public celebrations of floral beauty and gardening skill, often evolving from traditional flower shows. Today, they feature elaborate themed displays, competitions, and educational programs, drawing visitors to enjoy seasonal blooms like tulips, daffodils, and cherry blossoms.

Egyptian Agricultural Museum

The Egyptian Agricultural Museum, located in Cairo’s Dokki district, was inaugurated in 1938. It was established to document the long history of agriculture in Egypt, from the time of the Pharaohs to the modern era, showcasing ancient tools, models of irrigation systems, and exhibits on crop cultivation. The museum complex also includes specialized halls for natural history, ancient Egyptian agriculture, and cotton, highlighting Egypt’s enduring relationship with the Nile and the land.

Dokki

Dokki is a bustling, modern district in western Cairo, Egypt, known primarily as a major commercial and residential hub. Historically, it was developed in the 19th century during the reign of Khedive Ismail as part of the expansion of Cairo, transforming from agricultural land into a prestigious neighborhood with grand villas and gardens, many of which have since been replaced by high-rise buildings.

Arab region

The Arab region, also known as the Arab world, is a vast cultural and geographic area spanning from the Atlantic Ocean to the Arabian Sea, united primarily by the Arabic language and shared history. Its history is profoundly shaped by the rise of Islam in the 7th century, which led to expansive caliphates that spread the language, religion, and advanced scientific knowledge. Today, it comprises 22 diverse countries, rich in ancient civilizations, Islamic heritage, and modern economic significance, particularly in energy resources.

Egypt

Egypt is home to one of the world’s oldest civilizations, with a recorded history spanning over 5,000 years and iconic monuments like the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx built during the era of the pharaohs. Its rich cultural legacy, from ancient hieroglyphs to the rule of Cleopatra, was later influenced by Greek, Roman, Coptic Christian, and Islamic periods, making it a profound crossroads of history and religion. Today, Egypt’s historical sites along the Nile River, including Luxor’s temples and the Valley of the Kings, continue to be major global attractions.

Spring holiday

“Spring holiday” is not a specific place or cultural site, but a general term for a vacation period during the spring season. Many cultures have specific spring festivals tied to their history, such as **Nowruz** (the Persian New Year and spring equinox celebration with ancient Zoroastrian roots) or **Holi** (the Hindu festival of colors celebrating the arrival of spring and the triumph of good over evil). These holidays often symbolize renewal, fertility, and the end of winter.

Ramadan

“Ramadan” is not a specific place or cultural site, but rather the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, observed by Muslims worldwide as a holy period of fasting, prayer, and reflection. Its history dates to the 7th century CE when, according to Islamic belief, the first verses of the Quran were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad during this month. The observance commemorates this revelation and is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, central to the faith’s practice and spiritual life.

Egyptian tradition

“Egyptian tradition” broadly refers to the enduring cultural and religious practices that have evolved over millennia in Egypt, rooted in its ancient civilization. These traditions encompass mythology, art, architecture, and social customs, heavily influenced by ancient beliefs like those surrounding the pharaohs and gods, later integrating Coptic Christian and Islamic elements. This rich heritage continues to shape modern Egyptian identity, from festivals and folklore to daily life and artistic expression.
