As the weather starts to get warmer, spring into outdoor fun in Grand Rapids! We’ve included activities, things to do, and businesses that will make the spring season fantastic…

Frederik Meijer Gardens

Open year round with admission ranging from $4-$15

Spring: “Butterflies are Blooming” and cherry blossoms at the Japanese Gardens.

This is definitely a Grand Rapids staple piece and favorite. With so many exhibits offered, Meijer Gardens also fills one of their tropical conservatories in the spring with butterflies from all over the globe that draw so many people in to see the beauty!

Tulip Time

May 7 – May 15, 2022

I almost feel like West Michigan wouldn’t be West Michigan without Tulip Time. It is a celebration of two things: Dutch heritage and tulips! Tulip Time is a week long event held in the cute town of Holland, Michigan and has a variety of events geared toward family and children as well as adults!

West Michigan Whitecaps Baseball Games

In Comstock Park you’ll find Grand Rapids’ very own baseball team, the Whitecaps. The West Michigan Whitecaps makes going to a baseball game as fun as it can be with all the extra events, themed days, and mascots! This is the perfect thing to do with your family on a nice spring day.

Blandford Nature Center

Blandford Nature Center is the perfect place to walk through the trails and see all the new blooms of the spring. Admire the beauty of GR in the spring at Blandford Nature Center!

Heritage Hill Home Tours

The Grand Rapids Heritage Hill Historic District is full of beautiful homes representing all kinds of American Architecture and is known as one of the best historic neighborhoods in the United States. Every year the Heritage Hill Association puts on a tour as a fundraiser to give the people of GR the awesome experience of seeing some of the breathtaking homes it has to offer.
