Wooden Shoe Tulip Fest in Woodburn, Oregon 2025, Portland

The Pacific Northwest is not the Netherlands, however, some local spots can compete with Keukenhoff when tulips are in bloom. The Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm, with a stunning backdrop of Mount Hood, is one of the most popular spring destinations in the state. With beautiful rows of red, pink, and purple tulips, this festival will be perfect for your Instagram.

With 40 acres of tulip fields, vineyards, and a few muddy puddles located in Woodburn in the middle of Willamette Valley, The Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival welcomes visitors from all over the state. It offers fresh flowers, snacks, photo ops, and lots of fun. The festival attracts 100,000 people every year.

Activities

Daily activities include Wooden Shoe Making Demonstrations, Steam Tractor Demonstrations, and Craft Market Market Place. There is a special kids' play area that also features pony rides, jump tents, bungee jumpers, a rock wall, and a zip line.

Tulips bloom from late March through early May, with the Farm typically seeing the most vibrant and overlapping colors around mid-April.
