Last week we officially launched the 2026 National Cherry Blossom Festival — and what an incredible night! 🌸✨

Guests joined us at @sequoiawashingtondc, our Host Sponsor, along with supporting sponsors from @linkstrategic, @washingtonharbour, and @rubinocompany — thank you for helping make this celebration possible!

We also unveiled our 2026 Official Artwork, “America in Bloom,” created by 2026 Official Artist, @timyanke. Tim is an American artist with @parkwestgallery, one of the world’s largest art dealer.

The night was filled with exciting announcements, including:
🌸 Blossom Block expanding City in Bloom across DC

🌸 Opening Ceremony moving to a NEW venue: DAR Constitution Hall

🌸 Blossom Kite Festival taking flight with a “Red, White & Bloom” theme honoring America’s 250th

🌸 Petalpalooza® featuring the new zone: Cherry Blast®

🌸 2026 Parade Performers include David Archuleta (@davidarchie), Gabby Samone (@gabbysamonemusic), and Club Nouveau (@officialclubnouveau), with more to come!

Thank you to everyone who joined us as we kicked off the countdown to spring.

2026 is starting to BLOOM 🌸
