Tips and Tricks
Both the Tulip Festival and Sunflower Festival can get very crowded on the weekend. Best time to visit would certainly be during the week if crowds are not your thing.
Also, both festivals are affected by sun, rain, all weather events. If you want to find the "perfect" day to visit, contact Holland Ridge and ask for some assistance!

Hours / Season of Operation
Spring (April-ish) for Tulips, and late summer for sunflowers.
