Easter and Spring are the the perfect time to discover Powerscourt when the Estate and gardens are starting to bloom. Don’t miss the opportunity to see 30,000 tulips and Spring bulbs in bloom at this year’s Annual Tulip Festival. At the Japanese Garden you can breathe in an array of exotic fragrances from sweet magnolia flowers, perfumed azaleas and cherry and apple blossom trees, bearing cascades of pink and white flowers. The Camellias in the Memorial Garden and the thousands of daffodils throughout the gardens and Estate bring Spring cheer after the long winter months.

We hope to see you up on the Estate this Easter enjoying the Spring blooms in the gardens.
