THE TESSELAAR Tulip Festival is back again this spring with fields of fun for the whole family.
Each year the tulip festival located at The Tulip Farm in Silvan is made bigger and better than the last, and this one will be sure to deliver. The Tesselaar family have planted over 100,000 more than last year, combining more than 120 varieties of pretty tulips to look at.
That being said, there will be over one million flowers across the tulip farm. Take your time as you walk through the spectacular fields of colourful tulips and admire the sculptures Victorian artists have created.
There will be four weeks of live entertainment as well as the opportunity to browse the market stalls and even pick your own tulips.
In its 62nd year, the festival will still feature all of its traditional events including Turkish, Dutch and Irish weekends.
Don’t forget to stop by the incredibly delicious goodies including Olibollen (Dutch donuts), Gozleme, baked potatoes and loads more.
You won’t want to forget your camera for this festival as there are plenty of photo opportunities.
The Tesselaar Tulip Festival will be running between 10am until 5pm daily from 10 September until 6 October. Tickets cost $24 for adults, $20 for concession and children under the age of 16 are free when accompanied by an adult or concession.
