- Tulip Time is a nine-day festival in early May that celebrates the community’s millions of tulips and hundreds of Dutch Dancers in wooden shoes.
- Windmill Island Gardens is a city parkland home to tulips of all colors, Dutch-themed shops, and an authentic Dutch windmill.
- Nelis’ Dutch Village is a 100-year-old family-owned destination that celebrates Dutch culture with children’s rides and shops.
