Constable Burton Hall & Gardens will be running the ever-popular annual Tulip Festival over the Early May Bank Holiday weekend - Saturday 2nd May to Monday 4th May 2026.

With more than 6000 tulips of over 100 different varieties planted throughout the formal and woodland gardens, this is the most spectacular time of year to visit Constable Burton Hall & Gardens!

As the northern show garden for Bloms Bulbs - winner of 70 Chelsea Gold Medals - we will be showcasing their incredible collection of flowers, a vibrant mix of classic favourites and exciting new varieties! This really is the most beautiful season in our gardens, with a riot of colour everywhere you cast your eye.

Our planting schemes are designed to inspire you: discover the versatility of this glorious spring flower, and let your imagination run wild planning your own garden designs. Our lawn marquees will host a stunning display of cut flowers from Bloms’ own nursery, and there will be expert advice on hand from the Bloms team who will be in attendance. Bloms have also devised a specially curated collection of tulips unique to Constable Burton Hall & Gardens which will be on sale during the festival.

The Lawn Marquee pop-up will be serving a delicious assortment of hot & cold refreshments, all baked freshly by our talented estate chefs. Our selection of sandwiches, snacks, cakes and cream teas are the perfect complement to a leisurely stroll through the tulips. Along with hot drinks, we will also have a licensed bar for those who would like to enjoy a tipple with their treats!

The festival runs over the early May bank holiday weekend, and it is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the beauty of spring in full bloom in our stunning gardens.
