Skagit Valley Tulip Festival 2021
Welcome to La Conner and the 2021 Skagit Valley Tulip Festival! Surrounded by the Salish Sea and farmland filled with tulip and daffodil bulbs, La Conner is ready to welcome you safely. We know things look a lot different this year! Be sure to wear your mask, social distance, and be kind! Keep an eye out for our local Rotary club around town selling bouquets and raising funds for local programs.
Bloom Map
Mother Nature decides on the exact dates for tulips to bloom, however, Mid and late March are historically a good time to view the Daffodil Fields and April 7-April 25th has historically been the safest bet to see the most color. Keep an eye on the Bloom Map and follow us on Facebook for updates! The La Conner Daffodil Festival is in March and The Tulip Festival runs the entire month of April. The least amount of traffic is on weekdays early morning and late afternoon. For your visits, we encourage you to stay the night and enjoy the fields in the early morning and late evenings. And be sure to buy your tickets before your visit!
Tulip Town Tickets
Due to State required COVID mitigation protocols, Tulip Town must restrict the number of guests on the farm at a given time. Tulip Town will be opening earlier and staying open later, as well as switching over to online ticketing to ensure you have the most amazing tulip experience possible!
There are three passes available: General Admission, Experience Pass, and a Photography Pass. The General Admission is $10 ages 12+, $5 ages 6-11, and kids 5 and under are free. General Admission includes parking, a trolley ride, and access to the 2021 Tulip Bloom field, tulip gardens, indoor tulip display, and barn experience. The Experience pass is $45/person and includes everything in General Admission plus a mini-workshop and escorted access directly into the field where you will be taught how to pick your own bouquet. You will go home with not only the experience of a lifetime but your prized bouquets and first-hand knowledge from the Tulip Town experts! Lastly, the Photography Pass is $100 for a day pass and $375 for a season’s pass. The Photography Pass gets you exclusive access to the tulip field and gardens during the golden hours: 6-8 am and through sunset, as well as during normal business hours.
