Enter a world of magic, imagination and wonder as the Macy’s Flower Show® opens the first chapter of spring with Once Upon a Springtime. Macy’s annual floral spectacular will bloom in unison at three flagship locations including Herald Square in New York City, State Street in Chicago, and Union Square in San Francisco. Beginning Sunday, March 25 and sprouting through Sunday, April 8, Once Upon a Springtime will transform the iconic stores into enchanted gardens where the beauty and renewal of the spring season meets the whimsy of a fairytale journey.

“This spring, Macy’s Flower Show will transport visitors to the magical world of fairytales, complete with princesses and dragons re-imagined through lush foliage and meticulously designed floral gardens,” said Susan Tercero, group vice president, Special Productions, Macy’s Parade & Entertainment Group. “Our annual celebration will give more than a million spectators a breathtaking introduction into this world of fantasy, sparking the imagination as they enjoy the first blush of the spring season.”

This year's themed celebration will bring to floral life an original twist on classic fairytales, creating a world of personified flora and fauna, princesses, evil queens, fairy godmothers, and noble knights that lead spectators on a wondrous journey. As visitors enter each show, they will have the ability to choose their own adventure, based on how they begin their trip through the floral fantasy land. From a towering castle where the Princess resides to a meadow of brightly colored flowers, an enchanted forest, and lush lagoon; spectators will play a part in Spring’s triumph over eternal Winter.

“This year we have taken the Flower Show to another level through storytelling,” said Rick Pomer, vice president creative director, Macy’s Branded Entertainment. “Our floral fairytale gives us a narrative to weave throughout the entire show and allows our guests to immerse themselves in the show like never before.”

In addition to the magnificent landscaped gardens, Flower Show spectators will have the opportunity to enjoy a host of special in-store events including floral, food, and fashion demonstrations, celebrity appearances, and more during the two weeks the show is in full bloom.

For more than 70 years, Macy’s Flower Show has delighted generations of floral aficionados with over-the-top presentations of lavish gardens that showcase millions of live flowers, plants, and trees from around the globe. Native to many different landscapes, Macy’s Flower Show features floral material blooming in unison, despite their unique climatic DNA. Taking root in unexpected settings, such as store countertops, windows, and specially-designed architecture, including grand bridges, columns, and topiaries, Macy’s Flower Show is staged in distinct fashion at each of the three locations nationwide.

Macy’s springtime tradition is supported in part thanks to signature partners including Girl Scouts of the United States of America, Homewood Suites® by Hilton®, and Sinclair Oil Corporation.

Free to the public, Macy’s Flower Show will be open during regular store hours.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
