The National Cherry Blossom Festival returns to Washington, DC, coinciding with the white and pink floral blossoms bursting to life on more than 3,700 cherry trees found around the Tidal Basin in West Potomac Park, Hains Point of East Potomac Park and the Washington Monument grounds. Since receiving 3,000 cherry trees from the Mayor of Tokyo in 1912, the District of Colombia’s beautiful spring has become a draw to travelers eager to say goodbye to winter and stand beneath the shade of thousands of pink and white petals. Take in the sweet aroma and colors while staying at a Washington, DC-area Hilton—the 2023 premier hotel provider for the event.
The predicted peak bloom for the cherry blossoms in Washington, DC is March 22-25th. The month-long festival features a plethora of petal-celebrating events, including the Blossom Kite Festival, the Pink Tie Party, fireworks, and the perennial National Cherry Blossom Parade, which runs along Constitution Avenue with colorful helium balloons, elaborate floats, celebrity entertainers and marching bands from around the country. Here’s a sampling of what you can find when you stay at Hilton.
