This festival takes place every April, and although we list the Tulip Festival Office as festival's location - there really is no entrance. The reason is that the actual festival is touring and experiencing the many different tulip fields in full bloom throughout the Skagit Valley. You can drive and visit different fields, see what is happening in Mt. Vernon and La Conner, sign up for bike tours, go to a salmon bake, or just wander around and find something new to experience.
