Tulip Time Festival

The Tulip Time Festival is an annual tulip festival held in Holland, Michigan, United States. The festival began in 1929 after a civic beautification effort led to the planting of 100,000 tulip bulbs in the city. It is held over ten days in early May and features tulip displays, parades, Dutch-American cultural activities, dancing, exhibits, a carnival, and live entertainment. It has been described as the longest-running tulip festival in the United States.
