Event Details

In the depths of the post-winter doldrums, the creators of the hugely popular Chilliwack Tulip Festival will bring beauty, colour, and a spirit of giving to the Lower Mainland — with the second annual I Heart Tulips event in support of Variety – the Children’s Charity.

Happening Saturday,  March 7th, 2020, at Metropolis at Metrotown, I Heart Tulips will see an enormous, one-day-only installation of 10,000 live multi coloured  tulips taking over the shopping mecca’s Grand Court. Sponsored by Onos Greenhouses Ltd., along with Tulips of the Valley (which runs the Chilliwack Tulip Festival and the Chilliwack Sunflower Festival), the installation will be arranged with multi-coloured hearts surrounded by white, forming an awe-inspiring floral tapestry.

All proceeds will go to Variety – the Children’s Charity, a favourite cause of Kate Onos-Gilbert, co-founder of Tulips of the Valley. Variety – the Children’s Charity has been providing direct help to B.C. children with special needs for more than 50 years.

I Heart Tulips will also include a tulip selfie stand, photo frames, and the opportunity to take pictures with Tilly, the tulip mascot. Other pre-cut tulips will also be available (by donation), and all tulips may be wrapped on site for easy transport.  “Both Variety and tulips are close to my heart,” says Onos-Gilbert. “This event perfectly pairs both the charity and the flower in a one-day event for a very worthy cause. I hope people ‘heart’ it!”
