HOLLAND, MI (WHTC-AM/FM, Apr. 15, 2022) – With Holland’s annual signature event set to begin three weeks from Saturday, the “million-dollar” question around the Tulip City is involving the state of the star of the show.
Linda Hart of the Holland Area Visitors Bureau is assuring callers and others that more than a million tulips planted in and around Holland should bloom right on time for the start of the Tulip Time Festival on May 7th.
“We’ve had a very cool spring, much cooler than we anticipated,” she said on “WHTC Morning News” during her weekly appearance on Thursday. “At the end of March, when it started to warm up, I was fretting, thinking that we’re going to get color too soon, since the Festival is in the second week of May this year, but Mother Nature has done what she should be doing.”
The official dates for the Tulip Time Festival are May 7 through 15, but many people believe that the Thursday, May 5 dress rehearsal of the Dutch Dancers at Centennial Park is the unofficial start of festivities.
