A massive floral festival is coming this spring to Agassiz, a small town in the Fraser Valley,
Organizers of the inaugural say 10 million bulbs will be part of the new event.
"The festival will run for approximately four weeks, creating endless opportunities for capturing spring photos, memories, and experiences while tiptoeing around the tulips," reads a press release.
While tulips will be the main focus, it'll feature other flowers and plants as well, including fruit and nut trees.
"The most colourful spring celebration in the province promises 35 acres to explore with 10 million tulip, double daffodil, and hyacinth bulbs planted, including more than 50 tulip varieties, 15 double daffodil varieties, and a dozen varieties of hyacinths," reads the release.
Along with the plant life, there will be a variety of items to use as props or settings for photos.
While this is the inaugural year for the event, the organizers are familiar with flowery festivals; the Onos family founded the Tulips of the Valley near Agassiz nearly 20 years ago. Since then they've created similar events in the Fraser Valley.
Now they have their own farmland and are holding events there; last summer it was home to the Harrison Sunflower Festival.
This year's will take place in April but exact dates and have not been set yet.
