The local tourism bureau in Pella is preparing for another busy year of visitors in the Tulip City. Bailey Short and Cherie Westerkamp with Visit Pella say the organization recently launched the 2025 Visitor’s Guide and their team has been distributing those throughout the state ahead of thousands of anticipated visitors coming to the community this year.

Both were grateful for a busy 2024, including last year’s Tulip season, leading into the summer and eventual holidays, which included 2,500 tickets sold for the Christmas Tour of Homes.
