What is Tulipalooza?

Tulipalooza is an annual tulip festival that brings a burst of color to North Texas while benefitting local charities. Hundreds of thousands of tulip bulbs are imported from Holland and planted at Getzendaner Memorial Park in December. And this year, they’ll be joined by daffodils as well! Come Spring they’ll all be in full bloom and ready for pictures and picking alike, meaning you can take home your own gorgeous pop of color.

So join us February 28 – March 16 and enjoy a festival filled with friends, family, flowers and food trucks. All while growing hope in our community and celebrating the natural beauty of tulips and daffodils.

We can’t wait to see you!
