Spring into Canberra

Spring is one of the best times to visit this great nation's capital, when the skies are blue, the sun is shining and Floriade 21 - "Films that shaped our nation", bursts into full bloom.

Of course, there's much more on offer beyond the festival. Visit Canberra's tourist attractions on the Floriade Trail, or enjoy fun outdoor activities and a happening food and wine scene. A carpet of spring flowers, magical Cirque du Soleil acrobatics, Floriade NightFest - a new night-time event, and the spectacular VIVID, Canberra's largest ever photography festival, make for a colourful and action-packed spring in Canberra.

Indulge by staying at the new luxury boutique Diamant Hotel Canberra, or take advantage of one of the affordable "family fun" accommodation deals.

Your Opinion

	A recent survey of airport customer service staff claimed that airport rage was on the rise. Have you ever experienced airport rage?
		Yes. Delayed flights, poor customer service and ridiculously expensive prices make my blood boil.
		No. Sometimes I feel annoyed but it's better to remain cool in a crisis.
		Airports are great - what's the big deal?
