Canadian Tulip Festival

Welcome to Ottawa’s Largest Attended & Longest Running FREE Public  Festival

We are thrilled to welcome you to our nation’s capital for a 74-year tradition that celebrates beauty, renewal, and history. As you walk through Commissioners Park at Dow’s Lake, you aren’t just looking at over a million blooms—you are walking through a living tribute to a historic bond of international friendship.

Whether you are here to explore the self-guided Tulip Trail, enjoy the vibrant atmosphere, or simply take in the stunning displays, we invite you to be part of this enduring legacy. Thank you for joining us as we celebrate the return of spring to Ottawa!
