Cherry Blossom Festival

Each March, Macon becomes a pink, cotton-spun paradise as over 300,000 Yoshino cherry trees bloom in all their glory. For 10 days, festival-lovers are treated to one of the most extravagant displays of springtime color in the Nation as they visit the town referred to as the "Cherry Blossom Capital of the World." Despite its humble beginnings, the Festival has become one of the Top 20 Events in the South, Top 50 Events in the U.S., and Top 100 Events in North America. The Yoshino cherry trees' numbers keep growing as the Fickling Family Foundation continues to donate thousands of cherry trees to Macon-Bibb residents each year. Their generosity helps keep Macon's beauty alive as well as its distinctive title as the Cherry Blossom Capital of the World secure.
