Early and peak blooming dates for cherry blossoms in Japan may vary slightly from the previous year’s forecast. By using the last year’s sakura forecast as a reference, you can estimate when Japan’s cherry blossoms will bloom in 2026. <\/span><\/p>\n

Typically, the best time to see cherry blossoms, specifically Somei Yoshino<\/strong> variety, in Japan (central part – Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka,) is between late March and early April<\/strong>. However, in northern parts like Hokkaido Prefecture, the cherry blossom season usually starts in late April or early May. <\/span><\/p>\n
