International Cherry Blossom Festival
March 15, 2025 - March 24, 2025
The International Cherry Blossom Festival takes place every spring in Macon, Georgia. This festival is special because Macon has around 350,000 Yoshino cherry trees that bloom beautifully during this time. The event lasts for ten days and includes fun activities like concerts, parades, and delicious food. A unique fact is that this festival is different from the National Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C. The festival started in 1982 and has grown to attract visitors from all over the world, celebrating friendship and beauty through the lovely cherry blossoms.
