Tulip Festival     

 

Saturday, 29 March 08 - Monday, 12 May 08

Every year (since 1971), Morges greets the return of spring by celebrating the tulip, symbol of the spring revival. For one and a half months, more than 100'000 tulips (from mid April), preceded at the beginning of April by narcissies, crocus and hyacinths… compete in elegance and illuminate the beautiful Parc de l’Indépendance.

On a surface of 30'000 m2, the public can admire beds of flowers that were prepared last autumn by horticulture apprentices from the Center of professional teaching of Morges (CEPM).

At the weekend, music and other shows complete this great floral show and add harmony to the symphony of colors.
