    Bloomin' Tulips! is a festival of sense stimulating events celebrating the flush of spring colour in the small coastal town of Wynyard on the north west coast of Tasmania. The event is themed Colours of Wynyard to celebrate the spring flowering of the tulips at Van Diemens Quality Bulb Farm on Table Cape.

    During the festival you will marvel at the wonderland created by tulips in full bloom along our scenic coast.

    You will want to join the fun of a cocktail at our Tulips@Twilight evening; enjoy local art, craft, and music to suit all tastes; experience some magic at our at the spectacular ANZ Fireworks over the Inglis River on Saturday evening; become the new champion in our quirky Tulip Tossing Championships; sample the culinary delights of our fresh island produce or just become a local during your brief time with us!

    Wynyard enjoys one of the best temperate climates in the world. It is just 5 minutes to our clean sandy beaches and interesting fossils embedded in Fossil Bluff. Take the walking track along our picturesque, healthy river, teeming with bird life, abundant with fish and safely harbouring fishing boats.

    Wynyard is only ten minutes from the refreshingly cool, quiet forest areas, one hour from invigorating mountains or, for that matter, one of the world's finest cities, Melbourne!

    Wynyard is flat and therefore easy for walking or shopping. Our basic needs are quite easily met within our small and pleasant shopping precinct.

    Take the opportunity to walk through the largest publicly accessible area of tulips under cultivation in the southern hemisphere on Table Cape, and enjoy the superb floral showcase, art exhibition, and light refreshments. Bulbs, flowers and potted colour are all for sale at the Table Cape tulip farm.
