It’s official: the cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin are now in peak bloom. The National Park Service has announced that at least 70 percent of the cherry trees’ buds have begun to flower, as of Monday.

Peak bloom is expected to last until March 25. It coincides with the National Cherry Blossom Festival, which kicked off last weekend and will run through April 17.

This year’s festival marks the 110th anniversary that the Yoshino Cherry Blossoms were gifted to the District by the Mayor of Tokyo. The festival will feature music, food, and a parade on Saturday, April 9 at 10 a.m.

Visitors around the Mall have taken to social media to show off the rosy views.

Cherry blossom enthusiasts can also celebrate the flowers with events like the Kite Festival and anime movies at the Wharf. Those that would prefer to enjoy the peak bloom away from the crowds can also view it on the park service’s #BloomCam, which switches angles almost every minute.
