Australians will get a sneak peak at what the country’s largest public Wi-Fi network is going to be like at the Floriade flower festival this year.

The CBRfree network, which is being rolled out across Australia over 2014 and 2015, will be delivered by iiNet to the flower festival across September and October. Seven wireless access points have been installed at Commonwealth Park, all of which are connected to the iiNet network via more than 2,000 metres of fibre optic cabling, reports itwire.com.

Some 400,000 people will be attending the Floriade to see the one million bulb blooms and 8,000 square meters of garden beds during the month-long event. The maximum download speed a visitor will be able to achieve on the Wi-Fi network is 300 Mbps, but speeds will vary according to how many people are logged on at the time, reports arnnet.com.au.

Adelina La Vita, the organiser of Floriade, expressed her excitement for the new service.

“Floriade is a photographer’s paradise, so we expect the availability of free Wi-Fi to encourage even more people to share their experiences on social media,” she said.

By June next year, iiNet plans to have rolled out more than 700 Cisco wireless access points across Australia. The first stage of the scheme will cover Weston Creek, Bruce, Parkes, Belconnen, Woden, Manuka-Kingston, Dickson and Gungahlin.
