Did someone say brunch?

Happy first days of Spring, peony gang! We’re so close to seeing vibrant blooms, ample amounts of sunshine, and of course … peony festival weekend!

Seeing as we’ve finally entered the long-awaited spring season, we would like to officially announce our sister event to the peony festival: “Brunch & Blooms.”

Our Brunch & Blooms event is a brunch and retail crawl running in conjunction with our festival, taking place during the same time as the festival. Once you’ve secured your precious peony blooms and shopped the wide selection of festival vendors, head to the historic Noblesville square and surrounding streets. This area includes more than 50 participating locations of more peony fun!

The best part? It’s walking distance from the festival! Join us just a few blocks out in experiencing all the wonderful shops, restaurants, cafes, and small businesses our downtown has to offer.

Each participating location will have different peony promotions, drinks, products, specials, and more. But it doesn’t stop there! The alleyways, adjacent to the courthouse square, are activated with live music, tables, resting chairs, food and drinks, and show-stopping floral installations, making this a must-see stop within your day.

A special thanks to this year’s merchant sponsors for making this sister event possible:

9th Street Bistro, Adrienes Flowers & Gifts, Bar Ellis, Beauty & Grace Aesthetics, Bier Brewery, Chapter Book Lounge, Courthouse Club, East Bank Apartments, Go & Do Apparel & Goods, Just Lagom boutique, Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano, Noble Coffee & Tea, Noblesville Antiques on the Square, Noblesville Main Street, Noblesville Preservation Alliance, Rosie’s Place, Smith’s Jewelers, The Wild Bohemian Boutique and Mill Top Banquet & Conference Center.

The rallying around our state flower in our downtown is truly a hallmark sight to see. A full list of participating Brunch & Blooms locations is coming soon.

Please make sure to include Brunch & Blooms in your festival weekend activities, and stay tuned for more details, directory of participants, and list of select promotions.
