The Agassiz Valley Tulip Festival, located about a three-hour drive from Vancouver, Canada, is held annually before the harvest season, starting on April 1st and lasting for about two weeks—after all, the flowers only bloom for that long. The first Tulip Festival was held in 2006, initially attracting only a few hundred people, but visitor numbers have been climbing steadily ever since.

At that time, the entire valley will be adorned with colorful tulips, creating a breathtaking sea of flowers. In addition, the festival offers the chance to stroll through fields of vibrant tulips while enjoying the surrounding valley scenery. It’s also a great opportunity to connect with nature and enjoy a spring outing. Surrounded by this unique beauty, visitors can forget the hustle and bustle of modern life. Wander through the fields, away from the noise and crowds.

Since the festival takes place in the fields, the ground can be muddy, so rain boots are recommended. Visitors from out of town can also find various stalls at the entrance where they can buy tulips, drinks, and food directly.
