Tulip Time is an all-weather event and will not be cancelled or postponed unless the conditions are extreme.

The Tulip Time Flower Festival is an outdoor all-weather event. Tulip Time tickets are non-amendable and non-refundable under any circumstance. Please make sure you consider the dates prior to booking your tickets.

We love all animals, but during Tulip Time we must remind visitors that, unless your animal is a Guide Dog or an Accredited Assistance Dog, we cannot allow them into Corbett Gardens. Please respect this requirement and leave your furry or feathered friends at home when you visit Tulip Time. This year, however, we’re excited to offer a special one‑day event just for dogs — Dogs Day Out on Monday 21 September. You can find out more under the EVENTS tab.
