Gardens by the Bay brings back TULIPMANIA floral display from 1 April to 7 May 2017. The Flower Dome transforms into a floral gallery where Van Gogh’s self-portrait and famed art piece “The Starry Night” come to life with these beautiful flowers. Over 100 varieties of tulips and hyacinths including Darwin hybrid tulips will be on display.
Complimentary guided tours are available daily at 11 am and 3 pm, or 2 pm to 5 pm on 8 & 9 April as well as 6 & 7 May. Each tour lasts around 15 minutes and is available on a first-come-first-served basis. Gather at the “ASK Me!” poster near the Flower Field and will begin when a group of five or more visitors is assembled.
