Spring Festival at the Botanic Gardens

Tulips, tours, art, “Crafty Fifi”, the legendary Fairy Trina and more at this year’s Spring Fest­iv­al in the Botan­ic Gar­dens. Run­ning from 28 Septem­ber until 12 Octo­ber. I can con­firm that the recent (and typ­ic­al for this time of year) gales have not denuded the tulip gar­dens & so weath­er per­mit­ting, Tulip Sunday on the first day of the Fest­iv­al, should be a beau­ti­ful way to spend an hour or two com­mun­ing with nature. Accord­ing to the offi­cial pro­gramme:

Spring Fest­iv­al is the time to rev­el in the glor­i­ous riot of spring flower col­our and fra­grance at the Wel­ling­ton Botan­ic Garden.

Spring Fest­iv­al is proudly brought to you by Wel­ling­ton City Coun­cil, with gen­er­ous sup­port from the New Zea­l­and Com­munity Trust and the Wel­ling­ton Cable Car.
