Myriad Botanical Gardens will host the first-ever tulip festival on Saturday and Sunday, April 8 and 9, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. View the eye-catching 30,000+ tulip blossoms as well as the distinctive creative displays, take classes, enjoy musical performances, and dine and buy with dozens of regional merchants. Take wonderful pictures with your family, friends, and loved ones amid the tulips.

Although admission to the event is free, personnel will be on hand to accept donations. Myriad Botanical Gardens relies on donations to maintain its lovely grounds and carry out its mission of offering community activity that is both free and reasonably priced.

To accompany the Tulip Festival, a community, tulip-themed art exhibit is on display in the Visitor Lobby gallery and a colorful floral exhibition will be held in association in the newly renovated Inasmuch Foundation Crystal Bridge Conservatory. Numerous vibrant lilies, as well as other tropical flowers, will be on display to visitors. Adult admission is $10.50, with discounts available for elderly, children, military, and students. The Gardens encourages membership. Individual memberships start at $45 and fund year-round operations.
