January can feel long, especially when it’s cold and wet outside. But this is the point where the days start to stretch out, and the idea of spring and fresh colour doesn’t feel quite so far away.
This year, Tulleys’ award-winning Tulip Festivals return, inviting visitors to step into a world of colour, fresh air and unmistakable spring energy across three stunning UK locations.
A sea of colour across three locations
Following the huge success of previous years, the team behind the UK’s No.1 Tulip Festival will once again welcome visitors to wander through millions of tulips planted in carefully curated mixed varieties at:
- Tulleys Tulip Fest, Tulleys Farm, West Sussex
- Tulleys Tulip Fields, Willows Activity Farm, Hertfordshire
- Tulleys Tulip Garden, Hatton Country World, Warwickshire
Each location offers its own setting and atmosphere, but all share the same sense of scale, beauty and attention to detail that has made Tulleys synonymous with unforgettable spring experiences.
A festival that evolves with the season
Rather than offering just one fleeting moment of peak bloom, Tulleys’ planting style is designed to evolve. Early, mid and late-flowering tulips bloom in succession, creating waves of colour that shift throughout the season. No two visits are ever quite the same.
Guests can stroll through vibrant fields, follow scenic pathways, discover striking floral installations and pause at thoughtfully designed photo spots that have become a favourite with photographers and content creators year after year.
More than just flowers
Beyond the tulips, each festival offers a relaxed, uplifting day out. Expect seasonal food and drink, Dutch-inspired street food, live entertainment and plenty of space to slow down and enjoy the moment.
Whether you’re visiting as a couple, with friends or as a family, the experience is designed to feel immersive, joyful and wonderfully unhurried, a true celebration of the season.
Stuart Beare, owner of Tulleys Farm, says:
“Our tulip festivals have become a real highlight of the spring calendar. Seeing people reconnect with nature, enjoy the outdoors and make special memories is what it’s all about. Each site has its own character, but they all share that same sense of joy, colour and escape that people now associate with Tulleys.”
A must-visit moment of spring
Running from late March through to May, with blooming guided by nature, Tulleys’ Tulip Festivals have firmly earned their place as one of the UK’s most anticipated spring attractions.
Phase 1 tickets sold out within hours, and Phase 2 tickets go on sale on 23 January, with demand expected to be high once again.
