This Resort Has an Entire Festival Dedicated to Lilacs
Planning your next vacay around flowers may seem trivial, but trust me-your Instagram feed (and your nose) will thank you. If you're tired of seeing photos of California's Super Bloom and Washington D.C.'s iconic cherry blossoms, we've got another spring flower-filled trip for you to consider adding to your calendar-a ten-day long festival entirely dedicated to lilacs.
The Mackinac Island Lilac Festival is located in Michigan and has nonstop flower-filled activities this June to celebrate the blooms. Nearby Mission Point Resort is offering an amazing Lilac Festival package just for the event, so you better book it quick. Prices start at $308 per adult and include a two-night stay, daily breakfast, bike rentals, personalized Lilac Tours, ferry tickets, and covers your luggage fees. And, TBH, two nights is the perfect amount of time to take in all that the Lilac Festival has to offer.
As a celebration of the purple flower in all its glory, the festival features events like a parade, concerts, wine tastings, horse-drawn carriage tours, a 10K run, a culinary fest known as A Taste of Mackinac, and even the coronation of the Lilac Festival Queen and Court (because what's a festival without a royal court to preside over it?!). In addition to, you know, taking in all those blooms. As if that weren't enough, there's even a parade that features dogs and ponies in costumes. Dogs and ponies IN COSTUMES. Heaven is a place on Earth, guys.
