Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s cherry blossom festival, Sakura Matsuri, is one of the most anticipated spring events in New York City. The weekendlong festival celebrates Japanese culture with a rich program of events. The festival is the highlight of the Garden’s mesmerizing hanami (“cherry blossom viewing”) season.

Based on the Japanese tradition of appreciating the beauty and fleeting nature of cherry blossoms, hanami at Brooklyn Botanic Garden draws New Yorkers and visitors from around the world each spring to view the Garden’s collection of over 200 flowering cherry trees, one of the most spectacular cherry blossom displays in North America.

Tickets to Sakura Matsuri are required for all visitors. Members enter free with ticket. For more information, visit bbg.org/sakura.
