Make your storefront bloom this March
The 2022 National Cherry Blossom Festival (NCBF) is March 20 – April 17
Tenleytown Main Street wants to pink up our business district and bring some green to your cash registers. Tenleytown businesses can join the annual citywide National Cherry Blossom Festival (NCBF) and gain valuable exposure and foot traffic by taking part in:
Cherry Picks
Restaurants feature a springtime menu item: cocktail, dish, or dessert. This year’s festival offers a different culinary theme each week:
- 3/20-3/26: Delightful Drinks, highlighting libations, cocktails, and mocktails
- 3/27-4/2: Cherry Night, highlighting venues participating in Cherry Night (3/31)
- 4/3-4/9: Fresh Foodie Week, highlighting all seasonal non-dessert food items
- 4/10-4/17: Decadent Dessert Week, highlighting festive desserts
Participating restaurants must provide three $50 gift certificates for fundraising, promotional, or publicity purposes for the NCBF. NCBF will promote your restaurant and dish on the citywide festival website, social media, official festival guide, and press kit. TMS will amplify that promotion locally through our own digital media channels.
