The Tulip Festival is held at Thanksgiving Point's Ashton Gardens!

The Tulip Festival is included in the Ashton Gardens admission price, which means it is free for Thanksgiving Point members! In addition to the beautiful garden views that are always available with Ashton Gardens admission, the Tulip Festival includes thousands of tulips and yummy concessions. Fridays and Saturdays at the Tulip Festival include even more fun with our Tulip Tot Playland, music, and vendors!

Each year our Ashton Gardens Designers create a new Tulip Festival design, which makes each year’s Festival wonderfully unique. Because of this, the tulip bulbs from this year’s Festival will be dug up from the gardens to make room for next year’s tulip bulbs.

After the tulip bulbs are removed from the flower beds, they are available for purchase from the Ashton Gardens. The Tulip Bulb Sale begins at the end of May, but specific information will be posted HERE once it's available. You can use them to plant in your own garden, or they make great gifts for friends who would love to plant a piece of the Tulip Festival in their own yards!
