CANTON, GA -- The Creekview High School Band and Sequoyah High School Band represented the Cherokee County School District in the 2019 National Cherry Blossom Festival Parade on Saturday, April 13 in Washington, D.C.

The parade, which includes a march down Constitution Avenue, is the culmination of the annual Cherry Blossom Festival Celebration held each year. Fifteen bands from across the United States and the Bahamas were chosen to perform.

One of DC’s largest spectator events, the high-energy National Cherry Blossom Festival Parade, presented by Events DC, is a vibrant springtime tradition set against the backdrop of DC’s most iconic landmarks along Constitution Avenue. Giant colorful helium balloons, elaborate floats, marching bands from across the country, celebrity entertainers, and performers burst down the parade route in a grand spectacle of music and showmanship seen only once a year during the Festival.
