Tickets for the Okanagan’s first-ever tulip festival in Armstrong have gone on sale.

The Bloom Flower Festival will be held from May 9 to May 22 in Armstrong and tickets are now on sale on the event's website.

The festival organizers recently moved to the Okanagan after four years of holding tulip festivals in the Lower Mainland.

Last year, since they were on evacuation alert due to a wildfire and with the uncertainty around pandemic restrictions, they decided to hold a sunflower festival.
