Cherry Blossom Capitol of the World Mar 18-27, 2022 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. It has grown from a 3-day festival with 30 events to a month-long celebration featuring hundreds of events planned to entertain all ages and backgrounds. 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. The Keep Macon-Bibb Beautiful Commission, established in 1974, has been recognized as being the model program for the nation’s first commission under the Keep America Beautiful system. Mrs. Crayton and the 28-member appointed body seek “to promote public interest in the general improvement of the environment of Macon and Bibb County and to coordinate programs for litter control, beautification, recycling, energy-related needs.” Each March, Macon becomes a pink, cotton-spun paradise of delight as over 300,000 Yoshino cherry trees bloom in all their glory. And 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 by Congressional Records as the Cherry Blossom Capital of the World.
