FTD Announces Ticket Sales and All-In Package for 2019 International Floral Design Competition

Tickets are now available for FTD World Cup 2019, the world’s most prestigious event for the floral industry. The March 1 – 3 event, hosted by Florists’ Transworld Delivery (FTD), is a design competition that will showcase the world’s top floral designers representing 23 countries.

The international design competition is held approximately every 4 to 6 years and hosted each time in a different location across the globe. It has not been held in the United States since 1985. The competition is also the main feature of the Philadelphia Flower Show, the location of the nation’s first flower show in 1829. It is also the largest and most prestigious show in the U.S., attracting more than 250,000 people each year.

Daily admission tickets are available for $29.95 to the Flower Show and FTD World Cup competition – a savings of $12.05 per day from the weekend box office price. Prices are available for students and children too.

  • The admission ticket for Friday, March 1, includes entrance to the main floor although the Show is not yet open to the public.
