Peak blossoms, food trucks, and park-wide picnics
Celebrate peak bloom with live music, vendors, and family activities at Branch Brook Park, home to one of the country’s largest cherry tree collections.
Event details
For one bright Sunday, Newark’s Branch Brook Park turns into a spring postcard. Bloomfest is the signature day of Essex County’s Cherry Blossom Festival, timed for peak petals and easy wandering along Branch Brook Lake.
Pack a picnic blanket, arrive early for the best photos, and let kids bounce between music, food vendors, and open green space. It’s an urban nature escape with a true festival feel, and it pairs nicely with a stroll through the park’s historic bridges and lakeside paths.
