Every year the tulip season in the Netherlands officially starts with the National Tulip Day in Amsterdam. It is celebrated on Dam Square in Amsterdam, where Dutch tulip growers build a very special tulip garden. Everyone is invited to come and pick some flowers! In 2024 the National Tulip Day (Nationale Tulpendag) will be celebrated on Saturday 20 January 2024.
Amsterdam’s Museum square will be filled with approximately 200.000 tulips. Every visitor can pick up to 20 flowers and it’s totally free. Admission to the tulip picking garden starts at 13:00. The garden closes when the flowers are all picked. Don’t wait too long to join!
