Bloom Day ’26

The activation floor

Four activations. Not four booths.

Once the stage segments are through, the Pavilion floor opens and all four stations run at once. Nothing here is a table you walk past: you build and taste three tastings with your own hands, blend and label a roll-on, put your grip strength on a live screen, and get photographed at the arch. Walk them in any order. Four stamps before The Drop, our prize drawing, = a bonus entry.

350 spots. Free. Gone when they’re gone.
