Spring is Here—Join Us for the Opening Week of Our 41st Annual Tulip Festival!

After a cooler winter, our tulips are taking their time to bloom. While we had hoped for more color by opening day, nature has its own schedule! Our early-blooming tulips are expected to start opening by March 21st, with peak color anticipated in mid-April.

To celebrate the start of the season, we’re offering a soft opening discount—$5 off admission during the first week of the festival! You’ll still get to experience all the fun of the festival, from food vendors to kids’ activities, with a slightly greener backdrop in the fields

Bloom Status: Opening week for our annual Tulip Festival! We expect our early blooming tulips to show color, but we will not be in peak quite yet. This week we expect anywhere from 20-30% (10 acres) of our field to show color. This is when the flowers are the most pristine and fresh. Best color is expected to be mid-April. Tulip bloom time depends on weather and growing conditions. Check our Bloom Status or social media for updates.
