Tulipfest

Welcome spring in full bloom at TulipFest at Saunders Farm - a brand-new festival transforming the farm’s circular apple orchard into a breathtaking sea of nearly 500,000 tulips. Wander winding pathways lined with vibrant colour, discover artistic photo installations (including a towering Dutch windmill), enjoy strolling musicians and street theatre, and savour European-inspired treats in the fresh country air. It’s a joyful celebration of flowers, food, and community - proudly rooted in Ottawa’s spring tradition.
