Nestled between the rugged Cascade Mountains and the Salish Sea, Skagit Valley is a thriving farming community just an hour north of Seattle, Washington.

Each spring, the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival celebrates the spectacular bloom of millions of tulips across Washington’s Skagit Valley. Throughout April, vibrant color fills multiple tulip gardens and working flower farms, creating one of North America’s most iconic and beloved spring festivals.

Rather than one gated venue, the festival is a valley-wide experience centered around Mount Vernon, with events, gardens, and attractions spread throughout Skagit County.

Visitors come from around the world to wander through the rainbow of fields, experience local culture, and enjoy the small-town charm that defines this vibrant farming community.

Enjoy a colorful escape to what can best be described as the Netherlands of the Northwest.

Pair garden visits with waterfront dining, cozy stays, and scenic backroads for a weekend getaway that feels worlds away.
