Grab your clogs and head to Melbourne’s picturesque Dandenong Ranges for the 66th annual Tesselaar Tulip Festival from September 14 – October 13.
Each year, Tesselaar Tulip Festival draws in visitors from Australia and internationally, to experience a dazzling display of over a million spring bulbs in bloom, including 900,000+ Tulips in every colour of the rainbow.
Visitors are free to wander through 12 acres of fields and marvel at one of the most vibrant displays of floral beauty Victoria has to offer.
Children are celebrated every day at the Festival but no more so than during the school holidays.
Kids Superhero Week (September 30 – Oct 3) encourages kids to dress up as their favourite superhero while they watch the PJ Masks stage show.
There is also a petting zoo, giant garden games, storytelling, a fairy garden and rides on our famous Tulip Tractor.
Mail photographer Rob Carew captured all the action on a sunny day out.
