Waratah-Wynyard Council is preparing to his its 33rd Wynyard Tulip Festival, a full-day celebration of music, makers and mouth-watering Tasmanian fare in Gutteridge Gardens to take place on Saturday (11 October).
The Festival coincides with the spectacular spring display on Table Cape and continues to grow as a signature event on the Tasmanian calendar. Last spring, the Festival welcomed more than 20,000 visitors, and this year’s program offers even more reasons to make a day of it, from live music and thrill rides to helicopter flights and one of the state’s largest food and market precincts, all capped by a fireworks finale.
Mayor, Mary Duniam said the festival captures the essence of Waratah-Wynyard in full colour.
“Tulip Festival is where our place, our people and our seasons meet. It’s a day to wander the riverbank, share great local flavours, enjoy top-notch entertainment and simply soak up spring in Wynyard. We look forward to welcoming everyone to Gutteridge Gardens on Saturday,” she said.
Adding extra sparkle this year are Festival Ambassadors Josh ‘Pezza’ Perry (MasterChef Australia 2024 runner-up) and Hannah Moloney (ABC Gardening Australia), bringing culinary flair and green-thumb inspiration to the festival program.
The Wynyard Tulip Festival is a Waratah-Wynyard Council event, supported by the Tasmanian Government through Events Tasmania and the Tasmanian Waste & Resource Recovery Board. Entry is free and everyone is welcome.
