About the Tulip Time Run
The course winds through downtown Holland during Tulip Time, so the streets are lined with blooming tulips as you run. It is a spring morning in a city that takes its flower festival seriously, and the scenery does most of the talking. Several distance options mean the field draws a wide range of paces, and a kids' dash keeps the youngest runners in the mix.
The race starts at Kollen Park, which gives you a clear landmark to aim for when you arrive. Packet pickup and parking details are worth checking closer to race day, but the park itself is easy to find near the water on the edge of downtown.

The Tulip Time Run has been held every year since at least 2017. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 23, 2026.
