Wander along the boulevard of Kijkduin (Deltaplein) between 25 June to 8 August and take in the spectacular natural outdoor exhibition, entitled Boulevard Organic.

Twenty designs, that are inspired by the theme of world architecture, have been constructed by eight talented floral art designers. Each of the participating artists have come up with their own interpretation of this year’s theme as well as ‘organic’, resulting in minimalistic, modern and cool creatures.

Formerly known as 'Boulevard Organique', this annual exhibition showcases objects of art from various disciplines, made out of organic forms and materials, such as flowers. The pieces have been made predominantly from natural materials. As a result, their appearance will continue to be altered by natural forces such as wind, rain and sun.

The combination of art with organic materials and forms, against the picturesque backdrop of rolling waves and the naturally beautiful sand dunes of Kijkduin, make this exhibition the only one of its kind.

The seaside resort of Kijkduin is one of The Hague’s two seaside resorts, the other being Scheveningen, and is regarded as The Hague’s family beach resort. Surrounded by an expansive and rural dune range bordering a wide sandy beach which stretches for many kilometres, it is surprising that the beach resort is no more than 15 minutes away from the Hague city centre. With its many pavement cafes, restaurants and indoor shopping centre, the Kijkduin boulevard is the perfect spot for a walk, drink, dinner or some retail therapy. Kijkduin is easy to reach by car or publish transport. There is ample parking space and it is free of charge.
