Flowering during this weekend
The last weekend of March is usually when the first tulips start to bloom. Depending on the weather, early tulips may also begin flowering in the tulip fields. In the Keukenhof flower park, early bloomers such as crocuses, daffodils, and early tulips can be seen. The blooming of spring flowers is highly dependent on weather conditions, so be sure to follow our flower forecasts to stay updated on the latest developments.

Visitors can admire beautiful floral displays, including tulips, hyacinths, potted bulbs, and exotic flowers such as orchids and anthuriums. These exhibitions take place in different pavilions across the park, offering a unique indoor floral experience. Plan your visit to explore these breathtaking displays and enjoy the vibrant colors of early spring in a sheltered setting.
