Celebrate history in full bloom! This spring, Cheekwood's annual festival of flowers honors America's 250th anniversary with a spectacular sea of 250,000 red and white tulips, purple-blue violas, and hyacinths. Our growing collection of daffodils adds to the palette, draping the estate in cheerful bright yellows and pure whites, creating a vibrant display of color and renewal. It's the perfect setting for families, friends, and nature enthusiasts to gather and welcome a new season as winter

This laid-back, family-friendly beer garden runs for 6 weeks each spring and fall, raising money for Friends of Shelby Park and Bottoms. Enjoy draft beer, local food trucks, live music, and yard games by the iconic Cumberland River. (Free entry and free parking in the park.)
