As a vibrant lead-in to the main Windows to the World weekend, the Embassy of Afghanistan is proud to join the special showcase on Saturday 11 October at Commonwealth Park during Floriade. A selection of embassies, including Afghanistan, will host pop-up displays, offering visitors a glimpse into the rich cultures and experiences featured in the upcoming program.

At the Afghan display, visitors will have the chance to:

• Explore a display of Afghan artifacts and traditional clothes

• Discover Afghan fashion design

• Enjoy the sounds of the Rubab, the national instrument of Afghanistan

• Taste dry fruit and saffron tea, alongside authentic Afghan food and drinks

It is a unique opportunity to experience the beauty, creativity, and diversity of Afghanistan while travelling the world in a single day at Floriade.

Windows to the World further opens doors to Canberra’s embassies and high commissions, where visitors can explore international architecture, gardens, culture, and traditions without leaving the capital. This year, Windows to the World returns on Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 October 2025, and the Embassy of Afghanistan is honoured to take part in this celebration of global friendship and cultural exchange.
