Tulips are my all-time favorite flowers, so discovering that Victoria hosts a tulip festival was a delightful surprise.
Every year the Tessalaar tulip festival turns Silvan in Melbourne's dandenong ranges into a dazzling display of over one million tulips. This Celebration is more than just beautiful flowers it also featured a diverse array of cultral activities and family friendly entertainment, making it ideal for people of all ages.
We happened to go to this beautiful place back in 2024. I just never go around to making a blog post about it. I made a YouTube video about the day. Check that out Here.
It was absolutely wonderful. Seeing all the beautiful tulips was a real treat. If you get a chance, I highly recommend visiting this stunning festival. Unfortunately, it’s already over for 2026 but it usually takes place in September or October. So next year, make sure to book your tickets. It’s a fantastic day out for the whole family.
Every weekend during the festival they have themes such as kids week, dutch week, Turkish week etc.
At the entrance there are a number of pop up shops and some food stalls. There is also a beautiful gift store that is truly magical to look around in.
On the other side there was a festival stage and more pop up food stores
