Tulip Time is pleased to announce the 2026 First Bloem Fes­ti­val Art­work Com­pe­ti­tion, through which a work of art is select­ed for the offi­cial Tulip Time poster. In addi­tion to the poster, the art­work is used on mer­chan­dise to be sold by Tulip Time.

What’s your tulip time story?

Every­one has a Tulip Time sto­ry. The first parade you marched in. The sur­prise pro­pos­al in a tulip field. The year­ly moth­er-daugh­ter trip. The day your child wore Dutch cos­tume for the first time.
 

We want to hear YOUR sto­ry. Sub­mit a mem­o­ry, a pho­to, or both — and help us cel­e­brate what makes Tulip Time more than just a festival.

Tulip time Ambas­sador team

The Tulip Time Ambas­sador Team will sup­port the fes­ti­val staff in enhanc­ing com­mu­ni­ty engage­ment and vol­un­teer sat­is­fac­tion through inten­tion­al efforts that ben­e­fit our vol­un­teers, part­ners, and the broad­er community. 

Par­tic­i­pa­tion is a great way to net­work, share ideas, and build last­ing rela­tion­ships while cel­e­brat­ing Holland’s rich heritage.
