Coshocton Sunflower Festival Features

The Exotic Garden 

The exotic garden will feature unique flowers in many shapes, sizes, and colors. These sunflowers are not to cut or for purchase.

The Wilds

The Wilds features 40+ varieties of sunflowers, and you’ll get to pick a stem (or many stems) of sunshine.

Each ticket holder gets to cut a sunflower of their choice. Need more than one? You can also pick a Bucket o’ Sunshine as an add-on to your experience at the festival. Fill up a whole bucket with sunflowers during your visit! This is an add-on that you can pre-purchase when you buy tickets online.

Bucket o’ Sunshine will also be available during the festival. Sunflower bundles of 6 or 12 are also available for additional purchase during the festival or can be pre-purchased when you buy tickets online.

Sea of Yellow

The “Sea of Yellow” is a huge field of 5-6 ft tall classic yellow sunflowers. Climb up the bridge and take all the photos you can in the beautiful sea.

Photo Props for Photo Ops

You’ll find antiques photo props throughout the festival that are perfect for your photo ops.
