Tulip Festival

The Tulip Festival is Utah's largest spring flower event, held at Ashton Gardens in Lehi, Utah, from April 6 to May 16, 2026. Over six weeks, more than 1 million flowers—including daffodils, hyacinths, tulips, and poppies—bloom across 50 acres of gardens, creating vibrant displays and new arrangements each year.

Festival hours are Monday through Saturday, 9 am to 8 pm. Friday evenings (3–7 pm) and Saturday afternoons (Noon–4 pm) feature local live performers in the gardens. Fridays and Saturdays also include live music, food trucks, vendors, and additional festivities.

Special activities and tours are available, such as guided golf cart tours and docent-led walking tours; some tours include brunch and reserved café seating. The festival offers a Spring Staycation Package (includes accommodation and flexible tickets) and an All-Access Pass for entry to all Thanksgiving Point venues for a day.

Classes during the festival include floral design, flower pressing, yoga, watercolor painting, and photography. Classes have varying dates, fees, and materials included; some require reservations and may sell out.
