Tulp Festival

Tulip Festival has started

At more than 100 locations in Amsterdam, spread across all city districts, you can walk or cycle past colourful tulips in public spaces in April. Hundreds of thousands of tulips in bowls and tubs enliven streets, squares and bridges from North to Southeast and from Centre to New West under the motto: 'a tulip for every Amsterdammer'. Tulp Festival Amsterdam sends you on a voyage of discovery through shopping areas and residential areas throughout April, and the photogenic tulip can be beautifully immortalised everywhere.

Tulips also bloom in the open ground; depending on the weather, earlier or later in April. Stay informed and follow the news via Facebook and Instagram or visit the website . Share your tulip photos on social media with the hashtags: #tulpfestival2025 #tulpfestivalamsterdam #tulpeninamsterdam.

Tulip routes

The Tulp Festival adds lustre to the celebration of Amsterdam 750 with many new locations. From Amsterdam Centrum, the Tulp Festival will fan out in all directions in April 2025.

The colourful tulip carpet runs from the Damrak into the city, both Centrum Oost - with a special role for NEMO Science Museum - and Centrum West, and from the Dam both towards West via the Raadhuisstraat, and towards South.

In the South, tulips in the Rijnstraat welcome residents and visitors between the Utrechtsebrug and the Van Woustraat. The Gelderlandplein and the shopping and catering area around the Olympic Stadium and Stadionplein also pay tribute to Amsterdam 750

In the Amsterdamse Bos tulips mark the entrance to the Bosbaan. In the Vondelpark tulips float in the pond and on the Museumplein they are along 'Het Oor' and at the Moco Museum.

A tulip route in West takes you from one square to the next. In Nieuw-West, the tulips in tubs brighten up various shopping centres. Zuidoost goes all out with masses of tulips and brings the beautiful, red, Bijlmer tulip to life.

Across the IJ, colourful tulips welcome you to Noord and can be admired in the oldest and newest neighbourhoods of this part of the city.

Exuberant tulip displays can also be admired in the Hortus Botanicus on Plantage Middenlaan and in the gardens of the Rijksmuseum, the Hilton Hotel on Apollolaan, and the Waldorf Astoria on Herengracht.
