===Events===
Aalsmeer has a number of annual events and festivals. The most famous was the Flower parade ([[Bloemencorso]]), every first Saturday in September. After 60 years, this tradition was discontinued in 2007 as the flower auction stopped its sponsorship. Other annual events are the "Pramenrace", every second Saturday in September and the Bands Night (Bandjesavond) in June.
