There will be millions of beautiful tulips on display.
As spring arrives and weather warms up, many Ontarians are looking for a new adventure to shake off the post-winter blues. If you're searching for the perfect road trip destination or a fun-filled family attraction, look no further than the Canadian Tulip Festival in Ottawa.
The Canadian Tulip Festival is not just a celebration of nature's beauty, but a poignant tribute to Canada's wartime history and its enduring relationship with the Netherlands. The festival is organized by the Canadian Tulip Legacy, a nationally registered charity that honours the 7500 Canadian soldiers who bravely fought for the liberation of the Netherlands. It also commemorates the birth of Her Royal Highness Princess Margriet, the only British royal to be born in Canada.
The festival, which has grown into the largest public tulip festival on the planet, features a stunning display of over a million tulips in a variety of colours and styles, ranging from classic red and yellow blooms to more exotic varieties. The tulips are planted in flower beds throughout the city, creating a colourful and vibrant landscape that's perfect for a leisurely stroll or a picnic with friends.
