Macy’s Herald Square is about to spring to life with its beloved Flower Show later this month with help from YSL, Lego and other brands—and you’ll get some floral freebies this time around.

On view from April 27 to May 18 (three weeks this time), the 2025 Macy’s Flower Show will present what it calls “surrealist gardens and mesmerizing floral displays” with work by ManscapersNY and fresh flowers by The Bouqs Co. and a first-ever “Macy’s Bouquet of Deals.” 

“We believe in bringing events to life in our stores and this year’s 50th Macy’s Flower Show is a breathtaking example of that commitment,” said Sharon Otterman, Macy’s chief marketing officer, in a statement. “We create spectacular experiences throughout the year and transform our iconic Herald Square flagship into an immersive destination that inspires and delights. This spring we will welcome more than one million customers to Macy’s Flower Show to experience wonder and joy that only we can deliver.”

Here’s what to expect this year.

An immersive, scented floral walkthrough by YSL with gorgeous freebies

An immersive experience, “YSL Beauty Art of Flowers,” will encourage you to embrace your own transformation and freedom as you experience a “powerful landscape, complete with innovative metallic codes,” leading from the store’s entrance to a pop-up boutique. YSL Beauty’s new and first-ever alcohol-free citrus floral scent, Libre L’eau Nue, will first be represented in a bouquet of lavender and golden orange blossoms, followed by its other scent, MYSLF, which will be showcased with ferns and geraniums. Then, you’ll experience Y, with aromatic sage and beaming blue geranium flowers. It’ll all lead to a boutique, where you can interact with YSL Beauty’s new Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss. Then you can get your own bouquet of lilies and a couture personalization exclusive to Macy’s Flower Show, onsite bottle engraving and watercolor art and limited-edition flower charms.
