Make plans to attend Botanica’s Tulip Festival on April 10, 17, & 24 from 10am-2pm!
Enjoy this beautiful Tulip season with special attractions on three Saturdays in a row.
It’s kind of great to see events happening again. Botanica is the perfect place to get outside and enjoy a safe environment while social distancing. This year, volunteers and gardeners planted over 66,000 tulips at Botanica with over 110 varieties. It will be a sight to see!
Tulip Fest Schedule
Both kids and adults will have fun at Botanica’s Tulip Fest.

Each Saturday they’ll have live music, food trucks, activities in the bee house, carousel rides for $3, a petting zoo, and other special activities.
Hot-to-Trot and Noble House food trucks will be onsite. Botanica will also be selling popcorn, sno-cones, and beverages.
Paint a Tulip Kits will be on sale ($10) – you can buy them when you’re pre-purchasing your tickets to guarantee your kit or you can wait and get the paint kits (if there are any left) on the day of the event.

The kit includes a blank canvas, easel, paints, brushes, palette, How-To-Draw guide, a tulip identifier bookmark, and a tulip-shaped wildflower seed paper to plant at home. (Hint, hint: Seems kind of like an awesome Mothers Day gift to give artsy moms!)
Special hour-long guided Tulip Tours are available for an additional fee ($10) that will ensure you don’t miss a single variety. Get tickets and reserve your Tulip Tour spot here.
